Craftsman Zts 7500 Steering Adjustment
I have the Craftsman ZTS 7500 with a 27 hp Kohler engine purchased 3 wks ago in May 2012. With both steering bars pushed fully forward, the mower does not go straight. It veers slightly off to the left. How do you adjust the steering to correct this problem? Thanks in advance for any help.
