Hydrostatic Drive Service
Hydrostatic transmissions on zero-turn mowers and riding mowers fail gradually — weak performance on hills, pulling to one side, sluggish response. The cause matters because the fix ranges from a belt replacement to internal transaxle service, and we diagnose correctly before recommending either.
What We Inspect
- Drive belt condition and tension
- Hydrostatic fluid level and condition
- Air purge procedure after fluid service
- Transaxle temperature under load
- Lap bar tracking and neutral adjustment
- External leaks at seals and fittings
