What to do if my HUSTLER Lawn Mower jerky when starting or operates in one direction only?
If your mower is jerky when starting or only operates in one direction, it could be that the steering control linkage needs adjustment; adjust the linkage. Another potential cause is tow valves not closed completely; close the tow valves to fix this.
What to do if my HUSTLER Diesel Z Lawn Mower creeps when parking brake engaged?
If the mower creeps when the parking brake is engaged, the steering linkage is likely out of adjustment. Adjust the steering linkage to correct this.

Loss of power can be caused by restrictions in the air cleaner, so service the air cleaner. Another potential cause is insufficient hydraulic oil supply, so check the level in the reservoir.
