I was cutting the other day with my Super Z and I thought I got a flat because it started jerking on the left side. Come to find out the tire was ok but any time I tried to move forward or backward the left rear wheel seemed to be locking up. Can anyone tell me what this might be?

How old is the unit? how many hours are on it?
It could be something as simple as a bolt backing out of the brake assembly or it could be something as severe as a wheel motor failure.
Have you talked to your dealer about it?

Check the big nut that holds the wheel onto the hub. Do it asap because if it is loose you may be damaging the key inside the drum/hub. If its damaged you will need to replace the entire drum/hub.

It has about 725 hours and is 4 years old. I have not been able to get it to the dealer as of yet.It feels as if it is a hydro problem though

I would stop using it ASAP, just in case its not a major issue yet.
Get it to a dealer and get it checked out.
As noted above also, check the hub nut also.
