ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is a control for a hydrostatic transmission having an operating member rotatable about a fixed pivot axis between a range of forward drive positions, a neutral position, and a range of reverse drive positions, which control comprises an actuating member adapted to be fixed to the operating member for common movement therewith about the pivot axis and having a portion adapted to be connected to an actuating link to effect pivotal movement of the actuating member about the pivot axis, first and second return members mounted on the actuating member in facing relation to each other and for independent pivotal movement about the pivot axis, a pin fixed on the actuating member and extending between the first and second return members, a spring urging the return members toward each other and into engagement with the pin, a neutral adjustment member, and structure located in fixed relation to the pivot axis for locating the neutral adjustment member between the first and second return members and for adjustably moving the neutral adjustment member along a fixed path.
