Abstract

A hydrostatic drive for a windrower includes wheel motors having speed control arms movable between 'hi' and 'lo' speed stops by means of a pair of push-pull cables coupled between the control arms and a speed control lever. The cables have housings mounted to the motor control arms so as to isolate the cable from noise and other vibrations induced in the control arms. The cable housings are also mounted to the frame by a shock absorber load assembly which acts through the cable housing to resiliently bias the control arms against their respective stops and to further isolate the cable from vibrations.
