2. Unplug the switch connectors from the end of the
mow/lift switch installed in the valve bank bonnet
(Figure 39).
3. Loosen the jam nut and unscrew the switch from the
valve bank bonnet.
4. While holding the lift pedal in the fully depressed
position (the valve bank spools are fully in) partially
screw the new switch into the bonnet.
5. Connect a continuity tester or ohm meter across
the switch terminals and turn the switch in until
continuity occurs. Then rotate the switch in 1/2 turn
(180 degrees) and secure the jam nut to 75 in-lb. (8
N-m) against the bonnet.
Important: The switch threads will be damaged
if the jam nut is overtightened.
6. Connect a continuity tester or ohm meter to the
switch terminals and depress the mow pedal. There
should not be continuity. If there is continuity, repeat
step 4. Proceed to step 7 if there is no continuity.
7. Depress the lift pedal and release it (neutral position).
The switch circuit should have continuity.
8. Plug the switch connectors together.

proceed as follows:
1. Press the traction pedal fully forward until the No.
5 section valve spool is completely pulled out. The
pedal should contact the pedal stop (Figure 40).
1. Fully forward
2. Pedal stop
If the pedal contacts the stop before the spool is
completely out, or if the pedal does not make contact
with the stop, an adjustment to the stop is necessary.
Proceed as follows:
2. Loosen the hex nut securing the threaded rod to
the frame. Turn the flange nut on the rod to raise
or lower the stop (rod) while checking the pedal.
Retighten the nut.
Adjusting the Traction Pedal
for Reverse
To check the reverse operation of the traction pedal,
proceed as follows:
1. Press down on the rear of the traction pedal (reverse)
until the No. 5 section spool valve is completely
pushed in.
2. Check the distance between the bottom of the pedal
and footrest as shown in Figure 40. The distance
shouId be approximately 3/16 in. (5 mm). If the
