    I learned about this adjustment from a viewer, but it’s in the owner’s manual too. What other tricks do you have for mower maintenance and adjustment before your first mow?

    Thanks for the info very helpful didn't Know I could adjust the speed, just purchased a 2021 52 ZTHD last weekend and used it yesterday for the first Time I did feel I was mowing kinda slow compared to my other zero turns

    Thank you for the video. It looked like you were by adjusting that bolt back and forth several different ways and I couldn't really tell what you did. I heard you described it that the bolt being loosened increases the throw of the arms and increases speed.

    I really enjoyed watching this video on how to make the adjustments on the Mower, as it was very informative and educational. One other thing that I've come across in doing so, is that the filters can sometimes become clogged and restrict allowing the free flow of fluid to the transmissions. . I also measure the space between the throw levers to make sure they're both adjusted to the same distance. Sometimes, I put a little piece of tape around the bottom of the bolt, to remind me of where it had been adjusted at the factory. But All in all, this was as "Text Book" as anybody can get it. Can you please make a video on replacing the drive belt on the Gravely 60 inch series, Mowers. Thank you, and Please keep the videos coming. Take care, and
    stay safe Sir.

    Would be nice to have you tell us what was the final rotations you found to be the best on yours as a guide.

    It would be much better if you used an Allen wrench and an open end wrench😁

    If you do adjust them, I recommend finding the same starting point (backed all the way out or screwed all the way in) then counting turns, or removing completely, counting threads, and marking the same point. You'll likely need to fine tune them after the first adjustment. For owners of other type Gravely's, you may find this adjustment bolt is horizontal to the bars, facing directly forward in the open, and much easier to access. I have a Pro 160 and the adjustment bolts arrived with them nearly bottomed out already, and it moves pretty quick so no need for me to mess with them.

    What about in reverse? Mine is really slow in reverse

    is there a way to adjust reverse speed? mine doesn't go in reverse straight

  • @thebertusmcth
    @thebertusmcth 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Why not just pull the bolt completely off to get full range of motion?

    • @TorqueWagon
      @TorqueWagon  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I may have to try that. The way my luck goes, the thing wouldn’t track straight with the bolts completely out of both sides.

    • @thebertusmcth
      @thebertusmcth 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @TorqueWagon if it tracks to one side slightly just put the bolt back in on the opposite side its tracking to. And just barrrreeeelllyyyy limit the range of motion on that arm. Voila. Should go straight. But atleast then you would know you are getting full speed out of it.

    • @TorqueWagon
      @TorqueWagon  2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Good point. I think the tire pressure can have some effect on the tracking as well, so it’s important to make sure the tires equal pressure.

      Thanks. I live in Southern Indiana. It is especially nice in the fall, and the winters aren’t bad either.

      What's your final setting 3 full turns?

    • @SunriseCrawlers

      Another thing you could look into is putting a thicker fluid in the pumps. They are hydraulic motors so in theory a thicker fluid would cause less loss

  • @N-1951
    @N-1951 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    All that just adjusts the steering lever position to keep them even. It doesn’t increase the speed.

    • @budm9982
      @budm9982 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Your statement is incorrect. There is a different adjustment on the steering levers to even them up. As I own the same model mower and have made the same adjustments per the owners manual, the bolts that he is adjusting truly are the limiters to adjust speed to each wheel motor in order to adjust tracking.
