Throttle Control And Choke Adjustments; Belt Adjustment; Belt Alignment - Scag Freedom SFZ Manual Del Operador

Tracking Adjustment
CAUTION:
Stop the engine and remove the key from the
ignition before making any adjustments. Wait for
all moving parts to come to a complete stop
before beginning work.
CAUTION:
The engine and drive unit can get hot during
operation causing burn injuries. Allow engine
and drive components to cool before making any
adjustments.
-NOTE-
Before proceeding with this adjustment, be sure
that the caster wheels turn freely and that the tire
pressure in the drive wheels is correct. If the tire
pressure is not correct, the machine will pull to
the side with the lower pressure.
1. If at full speed the mower pulls right, it is an
indication that the left wheel is turning faster than the
right wheel. To adjust this condition, proceed as
follows:
A. Stop the machine and place the steering control
levers in the neutral position. Turn the tracking
adjustment bolt for the LH pump inward
(clockwise). This will cause the control rod to
stroke the LH pump less, slowing down the LH
wheel. (See Figure 6-3, Page 23).
2. If at full speed the mower pulls left, it is an indication
that the right wheel is turning faster than the left
wheel. To adjust this condition, proceed as follows:
A. Stop the machine and place the steering control
levers in the neutral position. Turn the tracking
adjustment bolt for the RH pump inward
(clockwise). This will cause the control rod to
stroke the RH pump less, slowing down the RH
wheel. (See Figure 6-3).
If after making the adjustments as outlined do not
correct the tracking or neutral, contact your local
Authorized Scag Power Equipment Dealer.
