What to do if my Kubota ZD1011-AU is scalping grass?
If your Kubota Lawn Mower blades are scalping grass, it could be because the cutting height is too low, so raise it. Reduce your speed on turns. If the terrain has ridges, change your mowing pattern. For rough or uneven terrain, adjust the wheels pressure and anti-scalp rollers. If the blade(s) are bend, replace them.
What to do if my Kubota Lawn Mower is leaving streaks of grass uncut?
If your Kubota Lawn Mower is leaving streaks of grass uncut, it could be because you're moving too fast, so slow down. Ensure the engine RPM is high enough by mowing at full throttle, and check and reset the engine RPM. If the grass is too long, cut it twice. Dull or damaged blades can also cause streaking, so replace or sharpen them. Also, check for debris in the mower deck and clean it.
What to do if my Kubota ZD1011-AU Lawn Mower machine operation is not smooth?
If your Kubota Lawn Mower's operation isn't smooth, it could be due to insufficient hydrostatic transmission fluid, so fill the oil. A clogged filter could also be the cause, so replace it.
