Why is my Kubota ZD1021 engine difficult to start?

  If your Kubota Lawn Mower engine is difficult to start or won't start, several factors could be responsible. It might be due to no fuel flow, so check the fuel tank and fuel filter, replacing the filter if needed. Air or water in the fuel system could also be the culprit; ensure the fuel line coupler bolt and nut are tight and bleed the fuel system. In winter, increased oil viscosity can slow the engine revolution, so use oils with different viscosities suitable for ambient temperatures. Lastly, a weak battery can prevent the engine from turning over quickly enough. Clean the battery cables and terminals, charge the battery, and in cold weather, remove the battery, charge it indoors, and install it only when you're ready to use the machine.

Why is my Kubota ZD1021 Lawn Mower engine overheating?

  If your Kubota Lawn Mower engine overheats, it could be due to several reasons. The engine might be overloaded, so try lowering the speed or reducing the load. A low coolant level can also cause overheating, so fill the cooling system to the correct level and check the radiator and hoses for leaks. A loose or damaged fan belt should be adjusted or replaced. Also, a dirty radiator core or grille screens can restrict airflow, so remove any trash. Lastly, a corroded coolant flow route can cause overheating, so flush the cooling system.

What to do if the discharge chute is plugged on my Kubota ZD1021 Lawn Mower?
- A
  Anne JohnsonAug 30, 2025
  If the discharge chute of your Kubota Lawn Mower is plugged, it might be because the grass is too wet; wait for it to dry before mowing. Alternatively, the grass could be too long, in which case you should raise the cutting height and cut the grass twice. Cutting too low can also cause this issue, so raise the cutting height. Ensure the engine RPM is not too low by mowing at full throttle, and avoid moving too fast by slowing down your ground speed.

  Dennis RobertsonSep 1, 2025
  If your Kubota Lawn Mower is leaving streaks of uncut grass, it could be because your ground speed is too fast; try slowing down. It may also be caused by low engine RPM, so mow at full throttle and check/reset the engine RPM. If the grass is too long, cut it twice. Dull or damaged blades can also cause this issue, so replace or sharpen them. Finally, debris in the mower deck can interfere with cutting, so clean the mower deck.

  Timothy NguyenSep 4, 2025
  If your Kubota Lawn Mower is producing exhaust fumes that are colored, the cause and solution depend on the color. If the fumes are black, change the fuel and fuel filter, check the oil level, and reduce the engine load. If the fumes are blue-white, heat the muffler by applying load to the engine, check the injection nozzle, and change the fuel and fuel filter.

Why is my Kubota ZD1021 giving an uneven cut?
- T
  torresjamesSep 6, 2025
  If your Kubota Lawn Mower is providing an uneven cut, ensure the mower deck is level. If not, level the mower deck. If you are moving too fast, slow down. Dull, worn, or damaged blades can also cause an uneven cut, so sharpen or replace the blades. Check for low tire inflation and add air to the correct pressure. Also, ensure the anti-scalp rollers and wheel pressure are correctly adjusted.

  Eric OrtegaSep 8, 2025
  If the blades on your Kubota Lawn Mower are scalping the grass, try raising the cutting height. Reducing speed on turns can also help. If the terrain has ridges, change your mowing pattern. For rough or uneven terrain, adjust the wheel pressure and anti-scalp rollers. Finally, replace any bent blades.
