Hi All, I am in Australia and a few days ago I just purchased a new Dixie Chopper EAGLE 54’’ FX850V KAWASAKI mower to replace my old Dixon Ultra 52 ZTR. I love the speed and the comfort with the new seat the Eagle provides. Anything I need to look out for or tips as so far, it has cut my mowing...

I have a Dixie Chopper Magnum 2250. Took rear wheel off to fix a flat and the threads pulled on one of the lug bolts. I removed the stripped lug and bought a new one. When I tried to install the new lug, it must have been slightly bigger than the the old one because as I pulled it through, it...

Yes my 07 Dixie with 27 hp. EFI engine losses power big time. Very strange that it comes and goes. I put another fuel filter on wich did nothing . I was leaning towards a fuel issue or possibly coil? Has anyone else has this issue?

Was working on a 2004 X2001 Dixie Chopper replacing the belts at owners request. These old mowers never cease to amaze me. This mower had the original Idlers on it. I run into this a lot. The quality of the parts used on these old mowers. The idlers on the new ones are not of this quality. Not...

I have a problem with my 60 inch Eagle HP. It is almost impossible to keep it straight when I am going down hill and slowing down to make a turn or going very slow down hill. The chopper is "lurching, jumping" and very hard to control. My dealer says that is the way it is and it can not be...

Hello new member from Kentucky looking for help for my Dixie chopper RB2700

I can't figure it out. Just replaced the sump gasket and bottom seal on Kohler motor from oil leaking problem. Engine runs great now and as long as you are going straight or making left hand turns no problem, but as soon as you try to make a right turn the engine will miss a few times and if...
