what a piece of junk ! ! I keep breaking the steering cables , I figured out you can not use it as a zero turn you cant put any force on the steering the cables IT WILL BREAK ! Also the throttle cable broke , the choke cables broke , the front wheel bearings came apart , I had to buy a hole new wheel tire set up , it has a hard time turning tractor wants to go straight it been adjusted many times still does it . bottom steering shaft universal joint going bad ,parking break won't hole its been adjusted many times , charging system wire keeps coming apart

What is model number? Can't even look-up the IPL. Sounds like Tank S series. I never seen one here. Only seen a JD Spin Stir which is horrible to steer on hillsides as you got to crab uphill to cut along the hillside.

Curious if you store the unit outdoors. That's a lot of cable failures!

Local farmer has a 60" Cub Zero w/steering wheel, he swears by that machine.. He said it will climb his hills mowing & no issues slipping.

Maybe humidity is getting to those cables. Does the closed trailer have any venting ?

yes , the cables stretch then come apart to much stress on the cables . I was told I need aircraft cables .

What year mine is 2016 it has cables, you may have the newer model it has a linkage not cables. When it’s not broken down it runs great
