ZRT new guy steering question

Just bought a used Bad Boy Z60 with just 30 hours. I notice when I mow, if both drive arms are full forward, mower tends to turn to the right. Should it be adjusted so it goes straight with both full forward, or is that wishful thinking? Might this be an indication of problem with the wheel drive systems?

Just had a few minutes to play with it when I got it, so haven't even checked tire pressure, but visually it looks level. Any ideas?

Thanks

First check the tire pressure. Most all ZRT I have worked on have fine tune on the handles. I've never worked on one of these but I can't see it being any different.

Got it! Tire pressure is Ok, but I found the fine adjustment for the steering.

Thanks!

:thumbsup: Check your fluid levels (I'm sure you have), and then what you've already found.

We get them in the shop from time to time - tire pressure way off from left compared to right side . One Dixie came in and it took a few test laps and head scratches to notice the owner put a new tire on - treads are direction like a sports car - why he was always turning right .
Make sure the hydro valves are tight ( if someone loosened them to roll the machine) .
