Vertical shock dampener control (A) allows the operator to limit the amount of "upward motion" the seat suspension provides. Based on operating conditions, this control has three detent positions.
These three detent positions usually cannot be felt. Push control (A) all the way down for the softest ride. Move the control all the way up for the firmest ride. Between these two positions is the medium firmness position.
Height adjustment is made with a push/pull knob (B). To raise the seat, push in on the knob. To lower the seat, pull out on the knob.
NOTE:
The suspension can be adjusted to reach limits in the minimum and maximum heights, which in effect, locks out the suspension system, making it rigid. The suspension height control will also hit the limits if adjusted too close to the extremes.
Fore/aft adjustment control (C) allows the seat to slide forward or rearward for best working position.
Fore/aft attenuator lock-out handle (D) locks out or releases the fore/aft movement. Pull up on the handle to lock; push down on the handle to release.
NOTE:
If the seat does not float or "pump" up, see your John Deere dealer.
The air seat also has an operator's presence system. You must be seated for the platform to operate.
After leaving the seat, the platform will stop in five seconds.
To engage, sit down, shut platform off and then turn it on. Platform should start running again.
This procedure is shown on a decal under the armrest. (Also, see ENGAGING PLATFORM DRIVE, in Operating Windrower section.)
