CAUTION
Keep your body and hands away from pin-hole
leaks or nozzles that eject high-pressure hydraulic
fluid. Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic
leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure
can penetrate skin and cause injury. Fluid
accidentally injected into the skin must be
surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor
familiar with this form of injury or gangrene may
result.

Brake Adjustment

A brake adjustment rod is located on each side of the
Greensmaster 3100 so the brakes can be equally
adjusted. Adjust the brakes as follows:
1. Transport the Greensmaster 3100 and depress the
brake pedal; both wheels should lock equally.
CAUTION
As a safety precaution, always check brakes in
a wide, open-spaced, flat area that is free of
other persons and obstructions.
2. If the brakes don't lock equally, disconnect the
brake rods by removing the cotter pin and clevis
pin.
3. Loosen the jam nut and adjust the clevis
accordingly.
