I have used this rotary mower for about 2 years and have never been satisfied with it. I have tried adjusting the positions to all the holes and still have the same results. The rear wheel does not want to track straight and turn with the mower. The dealer replaced it once, but the new one does the same thing. It stays sideways and acts like a plow cutting up the land.Any suggestions on how to correct this? I will try anything. Thanks!

The carrier is designed so that shaft from wheel up is on an angle facing forward. I was wondering if it should be straight up and down.It turns freely by hand and the mower is not bent in any way.It has done this since new.

Ours was delivered yesterdat, a 720 Brushbull. We had an 840 dual tailwheel kit put on this one, and I think it will cut much nicer, and share the load with each other.

Enjoy - those brushbulls are beasts.

Since about 5 million mowers of this same basic design work fine, yore's must have sumthing either bent or binding. If the deck is bent it'll take a torch, an anvil, an a great big hammer. Make sure the top part of the "U" shaped axle carrier is square to it's spindle, and is really smooth on top so's it won't hang up on the bottom of the tube.You can also put a couple of washers and sum grease between the bottom of the spindle an the tube. The wheel bearins have to turn real free. The tube that the spindle goes into has to be straight so's the spindle can freely spin. Don't be skeered to use a heap of grease either.
