22 Suspension djustment The shock assembly can be adjusted to vary the amount of pre-load applied to the springs. This allows the operator to maintain the ride height. Use less pre-load for light weight operators. Use more pre-load for heavy weight operators. To adjust the spring pre-load: 1. Park machine on a flat, level surface. Disengage the PTO, stop the engine and engage the parking brake. 2. See Figure 46. Using the supplied spanner wrench (p/n ), insert the tip of the wrench into the notch in the pre-load adjuster. While holding the wrench with both hands, turn LOKWISE to decrease the pre-load, turn OUNTER-LOKWISE to increase the pre-load. Make sure that for each pair of shocks (, or, Figure 46) that the lefthand and right-hand are set to the same amount of pre-load. NOTE: Spanner wrench is located under the seat. Rear tires must be removed to adjust the rear suspension. FRONT WRNING Use two hands when adjusting the shock springs. This will prevent the wrench from slipping while pressure is being applied.
