I tried to do a search on this but didn't find anything.
My Honda HRR216 self propelled pulls to the right while I am using the self propel.
I had this issue last November (and the mower would not pull in reverse) and took it in for service. I was told that pinion gear had not been lubricated properly and both pinion gears
were replaced (not under warranty even though the mower was less than 2 years old). Now after about 10 uses, the mower is pulling to the right again.
I checked and only the right pinion gear is worn.
There has to be something causing the right pinion gear to wear. I replaced the right pinion gear only (and lubricated) and it is still pulling to the right but less so.
What else could be wrong? Could the wheel need replacing? the wheel bushing? Could the wheel adjuster be out of alignment?
Thanks for any help.
