I have a brand new HRX217VKA. First time using it and the belt is slipping. With the dial turned up about a quarter it would slip starting out and you could feel it slipping going up hills or thru thick grass. The grass was damp from dew this morning but I feel like a Honda should be able to cut damp grass and not have any belt slip. The only way I could keep it from slipping at startup was to turn the ground speed up and engage the drive all the way then feather it back to a manageable speed. However It was still slipping on hills and in thick grass. Is this just the belt and pulleys breaking in or is there something I can adjust?
