AdjustingDriveClutch Control
The drive clutch adjustment wheel is located on the
drive clutch control handle housing and is used to
tighten or loosen tension on the drive cable.
Perform this adjustment if the following exists.

drive clutch engaged.
b. The mower's drive wheels hesitate with the
drive clutch engaged.
To resolve the above problems, rotate the
adjustment wheel with your fingers: clockwise to
tighten the cable, and counter-clockwise to loosen
the cable. See Figure 15 .
