My mower works ok on straight paths but as soon as I start up an incline, it begins to slow down. My backyard is not perfectly flat but it is not overly steep or rolling. I would describe it as "5-10%" slope but more flat than slope. And it appears to be faster in reverse than it is in forward, even on a straight line. I got this mower 4-6 weeks ago (don't know the history and don't have service records) also I cut around 2.5 acres - Need some suggestions.

Model #: 616
Model Year: 1995 or 1996
Serial #: 340931

Any suggestions would be great,
Thanks, SLS
