BX HST pedal stop adjustment

[tlj87]

We have had our BX2370-1 for about 10 months and 134 hours. One of the things that has bothered myself and other users of the machine is the slow travel speed in H range when driving across the property to the next job. I just looked at the pedal stop adjustment under the floorboard. In the forward direction, the bolt was most all the way up, and in the reverse direction, the bolt was most all of the way down. I adjusted the stop bolt in the forward direction so that it was most all of the way down (like reverse). What a difference! I have not measured the speed increase, but it is noticeable. Is this the speed that I should've had all along or am I going to ruin the machine?

Your not going to hurt a thing..The only thing I'd do is make sure that you use the bolt as a stop at full travel,so you are not putting extra pressure on the linkage and pump swash plate when your at full travel.Id back the bolt out most of the way with engine off depress pedal fully and unscrew stop bolt so it just touches the stop as it hits full travel. .then lock it down.

Done! Thank you!
