Steering Wheel Inspection
Check the steering wheel for freeplay and smooth operation as out-
lined in the Maintenance Schedule.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground.
2. Lightly turn the steering wheel left and right.
3. There should be 0.8 - 1.0 in. (20 25 mm) of freeplay.
4. If there is excessive freeplay or strange noises, or the steering
feels rough or “catchy”, have the steering system inspected by an
authorized Bush Hog dealer.
Seat Belts
Inspect all seat belts for proper operation before each use of the vehicle.
1. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. The latch plate
must slide smoothly into the buckle. A click indicates that it is
securely latched.
2. Push the red button to make sure it releases freely.
3. Check the belt for wear, cuts or damage. If any irregularities are
found, have the seat belt system checked and/or replaced by an
authorized dealer.
The seat belt angles should be adjusted to suit the individual in that par-
ticular seat before driving. Make sure the seat belt angle is adjusted to
the lowest possible lap position before riding.
1. To adjust, loosen the bolts on each end of the belts.
2. Reposition both the buckle and retractor. Tighten the bolts.
