toro proline cutting uneven

[bowpro]

I have a 36in. proline, and the inside edge of the right side cuts lower than the left side, and also has some play in it. Is it a spindle problem or adjustment. How much is a spindle and is it possible to do yourself without special tools. Thanks for your help.

If either of you don't have a owners / parts manual you can go here and down-load one, The parts break-down will show you how the spindle assembly is put together. Have your model numbers handy.

Thanks for the help. I noticed it cuts uneven when the grass is thick and tall. When the grass is short, or I go over it a second time it cuts fine. Does this still sound like a spindle problem? Could it be a loose belt, or something like that causing the blade to slow down or wobble. The mower is about 10 years old, so it might be about time for a new spindle anyway. Thanks again.

Just a few things to check when having a poor quality cut.
Blade sharpness
Belt tension
Spindle bearings
Engine RPM
Tire pressure
Deck level
If all these things check good and you still have this problem you may just be overloading the unit, Lower your ground speed in tall grass and see how it goes.
