Hustler Raptor uneven cut

[ronbirch]

Hoping someone will have a simple fix for my Hustler, its cutting uneven, leaving a 12" indentation line deeper than the rest of the cut?

Thanks in advance,

Ron

12” intention line deeper than the rest of the cut? 12” sounds like the width of the rear tires. You aren’t going to be able to adjust out tire printing.
Air up your tires to the pressures recommended in the operators manual. Then adjust deck level and pitch as described in the operators manual.

Thank you, will check those two things!

Could be that the pitch is too great and the center blade is cutting lower than the rest since it is the lead blade and stick out farther than the rest and would cut lower with too much lower pitch.

My grand nephew put on a blade upside down... that was really a weird one.

I'm guessing he found the problem?

Possibly, or he didn't think to let us know what fixed it for him.
