  • / ZT50 Zero turn electrical and hydro problems, Help!!
I was given a Mustang ZT50 Zero turn last summer, the mower runs great but the hydros were a little slow. Around fall time they got really slow, and I could smell the drive belt but improved once the machine warmed up. This spring before mowing season starts, what can I do to service the hydro's to improve the speed?


Secondly last time i stared it the battery was weak so I started it on a jump pack. The mower ran for a a min or 2 before compleatly dying. It wont even turn over so I am guessing I blew a fuse, I only found one fuse witch is ok. Are there more??

Could just be a locked up idler pulley causing the drive trouble.
As far as any other help, you need to find the mower's tag and post the model number. The one on the main decal won't work.

Where do I find the tag?
