I have a 48'' Metro HP with a 17HP KAWI. The machine itself is 6 years old, but it only gets used once or twice a week. I noticed I have been having some problems making turns and going up hills as the traction on the right drive belt seems to be reduced. I replaced the belts last year thinking this would fix the problem but it really didn't help that much. I have the tensioners on the aggressive setting (I have pistol controls in case that matters) but that still doesn't seem to make a difference. Are there any other adjustments that can be made to help me get some traction back? I don't have much of a problem with the left wheel, its just mostly the right.
Also, I was wondering if anyone could tell me what I should be using for spacers on the blades for my deck. I noticed someone had a post saying that they were having some problems getting stringy grass to cut, which I am also experiencing, and they thought it was related to the spacers. Any idea how many of what size I need on each blade? And do they go on top or the bottom of the blade?
Thanks,
Jesse
