1998 773 H creeping

[blawless]

Hi Everyone, I've been lurking for a while learning a lot. I have my friends Bobcat 773H and it's creeping. I changed the fluid and filter with Bobcat fluid. This went to a dealer for the problem and it wasn't fixed. It was missing the neutral cam on the top of the pump. Fixed that and it still creeps. I'm looking to see if there is a relatively easy way to get the neutral set on this. My friend is 78 and had bypass surgery 3 weeks ago. He's still in better shape than me. I searched around the forum looking for a previous post but couldn't find anything. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Bryan

You have to pick it up all wheels off the ground and stable and ajust it out I did my 743 pita and touchy but can be done

The newer machines are actually easier to adjust. As antfarmer said, get the wheels off the ground. Adjust it with the wheels up to ensure they aren't moving when in neutral.

Which linkages are best to adjust? The long rods going back to the control stack? My 98 863 always creeps backwards as well.......

You need to do the adjustment at the pump, not the linkages under the seat. The adjustment is done with two blocks of steel. When you move the steering levers you will see the plate that these blocks mount to move.
