All
I cut last night and suddenly had an issue with windrows, for the first time since I owned my Fastrak about a year now.
It seemed to be running well, spraying clippings like usual, but it left a heavy trail right at the discharge.
I had sharpened and changed the blades the night before. Only thing I did different than usual was to lift the mower by the deck instead of the front frame using my floor jack when changing the blades. Could I have tweaked the deck?
It seemed to be measuring level at the 4 corners (within 1/8" when I checked after cutting). I had one tire about 4 lbs low on air but it has probably been that way all season. Grass was damp but didn't seem particularly wet. I scraped after the cut and it had less hung up on it than it did when I changed the blades the night before.
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
