Neutral Switch Adjustment
9. Loosen the neutral adjustment nut (A) slightly. NOTE: it is easier to attain the desired setting if the neutral adjustment nut is left snug and a rubber mallet or a piece of wood and a hammer are used to tap the nut in the desired direction. Do not strike the nut directly with a metal hammer, as it is pos- sible to dent or damage the nut. 10. Release the parking brake and observe the direc- tion the tires are rotating. If the tires are rotating in the forward direction, the neutral adjustment nut should be moved up in the frame slot. If the tires are rotating in the reverse direction, the neutral ad- justment nut should be moved down in the frame slot. 11. Once the proper neutral position is achieved and the tires no longer rotate, tighten the neutral adjustment nut to 42 Nm (31 ft-lbs). Make sure to hold the bolt head to help prevent the bolt from moving in the frame slot while the nut is tightened. 12. Verify that the neutral position is still correct after tightening the nut by moving the SDLA lever in the forward and reverse directions and allowing the spring return to move the lever back to the neutral position. Observe the tires to see if there is any movement. Repeat steps 9-11 as needed until there is no movement of the tires. 13. Engage the parking brake and listen for abnormal amounts of pump hydraulic noise. Repeat steps 9-11 if necessary. 14. Engage the parking brake and shut off the engine. 15. Remove the weight from the power unit seat. 16. Remove the power unit from the jack stands or supporting blocks and return to the ground. WARNING An improperly adjusted neutral switch can result in erratic engine cranking or unsafe power unit move- ment. Check the neutral switch position after any adjustment is made to the neutral position. 17. Adjustments made to the neutral position bolt may affect the neutral switch setting. After chang - ing the neutral setting, it is possible that the power unit will not start, due to the neutral switch being out of adjustment. After any adjustments are made to the neutral position, the neutral switch should be checked and, if necessary, ad- justed by an authorized Ventrac dealer.
