Hello, we need some advice - we just purchased this Exmark zero turn mower with a bagger and 3 weights on front - it is almost identical to an older one we have but that one does not have a bagger or extra weights - mower width, tires, rims, wheel base, seat height, are all the same - what we don't understand is the new one without the bagger on but with the front weights is less stable on hills than the older one with no weights ? It has literally slid to the bottom of a hill while the old one does not. Any advice on this would be helpful ! Thanks !

check tire pressure, 10 psi they may have 30 in it

The extra weight on the front may be creating more downhill drag

I did check - each tire had 14 psi - I will lower to 10 psi - thanks

I thought that might be a possibility - we will remove them and try it out - thanks for the reply

Gravity = more weight = more pull.
