Kawasaki engines smoke at startup. It is normal. I would resist messing with things if the engines are running ok. Go to your local OPE dealer and start a new kawasaki engine on a 15k zero turn and it will smoke.
Good morning. There is a worm gear and electric motor on the deck. Test the trailer wire connector on the tractor under the floorboard to see if you have power there. My guess is the motor is not working. Take off the deck and test it off. It is very simple. Thanks
