you mentioned the sticks are not evenly making it go straight, there is a bolt head on the front of the sticks at the bottom and rabbit and turtle symbols so you know which way to turn it to adjust each sides speed. saw this on another vid.
Everybody I know raved about Husqvarna, so I gave in and looked into the residential zero-turn models. They just didn't feel right to me. Over months, I did the same with Toro, Cub Cadet, Kubota and many others. The John Deere Z330R / 23hp Kawasaki / 54" deck offered the best match for most if not all of my needs. *(About half of the top limit of acres recommended)* But if I had 3 hours/acres of mowing that beat the hell out of me, I myself, would probably aim for a roughly 6-acre max, lower-end but top name commercial zero-turn mower, roll bar and all if at all possible. They say these smaller entry level residentials can go up to 3 acres (or so) regularly, I personally fell right in the middle of that range and wouldn't have to run my investment to an early death. You know what to do, I'm just saying how I used the top acre limit to calibrate a gentler use of the machine over-all by having it's max acreage recommendation roughly double what I would actually use per mow. It's not a bad formula if you want to save your back, tons of money, and long-life your mower.
I bought a used z5424 that I'm very happy with. The previous owner disconnected all the safety shit and that is a lot less complicated. It's a 2016 and had 180 hrs for $1200.00. No regrets at all.
From my experience it depends on if you have a mulching kit on or not. I don't have one and as long as I mow often enough the clippings are small enough. Just depends on of often you want to mow and how fast the grass is growing.
The owners manual states to engage the deck under full throttle. Also to only mow under full throttle. Should let it warm up before use under mid throttle.
I had dealers tell me to engage full throttle, but when I did I was snapping belts like three times a year. And now I been engaging in low throttle for years now and I almost never have to buy a belt anymore.
They are more stiff going into park. Going out of park they are tight but not hard for myself or lady to pull them in. I don't think mine have loosed up at all.
@@dad0041 Lift up the back of the rubber boot. You will see the bolt to adjust. Try just putting white lithium grease in the area. It may be all it needs.
Yes. I am cutting my 5 acres with it but would not start a mower business with it. Friend has a commercial Kubota, $12 k 5 yrs ago, built like a piece of construction equipment.
Why do Americans allays mispronounce names. For instance... why pronounce Husqvarna as "Husk a varna"? you clearly had to type the word out for the vid title so were is the "a"? Not just this uploader though. So many more just make up word pronunciations. Why?
@@paulchapman1933 nup....my spelling is due to poor eyesight. Has nothing to do with the topic at hand. As for being picky? Nah m8, pretty fcking casual here boy.Nice try though bud.... Wasssssup!!!!
Here’s something sad I had a husky tractor for 10 yrs and never replaced a belt Can’t even get one for my z248f and it’s under warranty This machine doesn’t leave nice stripes like my tractor Cuts ok but not a good machine for the money if you buy new The engine is junk and if you have problems good luck Kawasaki screwed me like thousands of people Don’t waste your money on this machine Trust me
Can’t get deck belts National back ordered Tried a Amazon belt Didn’t last one cut This mower isn’t great at all Worst purchase of my life The Kawasaki engine is junk Mine blows smoke and Kawasaki won’t do anything under warranty Have a rod knock know Husky and Kawasaki doesn’t care about warranty They will not help you This machine is totally worthless Do not buy this garbage machine Just letting you all know The deck geometry is all wrong The lower you go the tighter the belt The deck isn’t even high on its highest setting Seriously not a good machine
I’ll say this If the engine can’t last 3yrs and the belts don’t either then don’t buy this machine After this fall if it runs that long It’s going to the range for 600yrd target practice lol Worst purchase and husky or Kawasaki could care less Please nobody buy this machine
