The video walks through disassembly step by step, removing the steering wheel, separating the dash panels, locating a friction disc and lock nut under the steering column, and tightening to preference. Part counts, bolt sizes, and sequence are all called out. Most useful to SA324 owners experiencing the same throttle-creep problem.
An owner-operator sharing a hands-on fix from personal experience with their own SA324 at roughly 120 hours of use.
A friction disc and nut under the steering column that controls throttle tension can loosen, causing the lever to creep down, especially during backhoe work.
Remove the steering wheel, take out three 10mm bolts and a hidden bolt under the steering column, then tighten the friction disc nut and lock nut to your preference.
The owner says it was six bolts total, including a sneaky bolt under the steering column and ones on each side he initially missed.
