Hi all,
I've got a Victa MSV562 Self-Propelled mower, and I've noticed that when the drive belt isn't engaged, moving the mower forward is often much more difficult, but also when trying to move backwards, the rear wheels sometimes lock up and if they don't, it's still just as difficult to move backwards.
Is this normal? Is there possibly a problem with the gearbox?
Also, I've found that when the drive belt engages, even at the lowest clutch setting, the mower moves faster than I would imagine for the "Slow" setting. Sometimes it will grab a little and move slow briefly, but then it will stop moving as if the belt is slipping. My thoughts are though that if I tighten anything, it will simply grab more and drive at the slowest speed that I'm already getting, but what I'm after is an even slower pace.
What sort of speeds are normal?
Cheers in advance,
