Throttle backing down

[AUSTENNN10]

I have a 3033H and when I make a run to the slash pile I set the throttle at almost full at 2,600 rpm. As I go up the driveway the throttle lever slowly works its way back and I end up at 1,900 rpms after 20 seconds or so. I then press the throttle forward again. 200 hours so I suspect something needs adjusting.. Anyone know what?

Follow the linkage from the sterring wheel thru the dash frame.. somewhere in there, there should be some "fiber disks" that hold tension between the rod & the tin.. they are probably loose or rotted.. just make some.. Good luck..

I've seen this before. Many of these throttle controls have nut in the center of the lever that you can tighten to snug things up. The trick is getting to it. You may have to remove a bezel, pop a switch etc to get to it.
