    Hustler Raptor

    I have a hustler Raptor SD 54". Has anyone had to adjust their tracking on the mower. Mine veers substantially to the left and I have to go slow just to go straight.

    Thanks

    had the same issue with mine right out of the crate, dealer adjusted and did pretty well but it always pulled a little more on one side the whole time I had it

      I wouldn't mind it if it wasn't bad, but I would be driving in a circle the whole time. Just had a new engine put on it also.

        Haven't had to adjust mine had it a couple years. Ill follow to see if you find a solution just in case.

        Have you tried any youtube videos ?

          There's TONS of info on adjusting tacking on ZTR mowers, but nothing specific to the hustler. There is an extra spring on the Hustler, and I've seen where there is an adjustment up by the lever, instead of doing it back by the hydro pumps.

              Mine pulls slightly to the left. I'd like to know how to adjust it, as well.

                    I am new to the forum but have searched around for a few hours between yesterday and today. I had to take my Hustler into a service shop and ended up having a new engine put onto the mower. It was a 23 HP Kawi. My Mower is now tracking to the left a substantial amount. I have put on a new...


                    Also posted on a mower forum. Here's the link in case I get someone over there who reply's with the solution.

                      Sorry I left the SD out of there. Dangit. I'll have to see if I can edit it.

                          Same problem with mine, I'm going to have the hustler dealer do it when I take it I'm to have some warranty work done.

                            My SD 54" is not too bad! Hasn't bothered me enough to try and fix it yet! I have replaced both belts, blades, filters, and changed the oil several times! You Tube is your friend! Or mine anyhow! I'm no mechanic by far but it's saved me alot of $$! Currently wondering if I should tackle the hydro's after mowing season or take that to the shop!
