I am a first time owner of a zero turn mower, Husqvarna Z254. I have had it now for about 50 hours and still getting used to it. For the most part, I am very happy with it. It cuts better and faster than the old John Deere it replaced. But I am noticing that on slight hills, it loses power pretty dramatically. It recovers when I hit the flats again, but with a Kawasaki 23hp engine, I am surprised at how it slows down. I also notice that on some turns it "slips" and creates areas where the spinning tire strips the grass down to just bare dirt. Are these normal for the machine? The grass is not wet, so I can only assume I am giving it too much "gas". Is there any adjustment to the speed control that would help me on hills?
