I'm hoping someone has seen this problem before, and knows the fix. I'm a pretty mechanically minded guy......and I've tried everything I can think of, but still can't fix the problem.
For some reason, I keep getting streaks of tall grass left behind from my new riding mower. I've leveled the deck/blades, made sure the tire pressure was equal on all of the tires, and even put a brand new set of carbide edged Gator Blades on the thing...and I still can't seem to get rid of the streaks. I usually mow on the highest setting the mower has....3.5". I mow once a week....and take off around 2"-3" every time I mow....my yard seems to grown crazy fast.
I've tried going faster, going slower...I've tried bumping the governor screw in to give the engine a little more RPMS.......nothing seems to help. The only thing that will get rid of the streaks is if I go over the same spot twice.....then it's nice and flat. But I don't want to have to mow my 1.5 acres twice every time.....once is bad enough.
I have a really old 16hp Murray with a 46" deck that mows great....nice and flat, and no streaks. So why does my new Husky with a 24hp Kohler and 48" deck mow so crappy an uneven?? The Murray actually seems like it has more power.....where as the Husky with the bigger motor seems to bog down all the time. I've got about 50hrs on the thing...and it's mowed pretty crappy since day one.
Any ideas??
