I wasn't paying attention and came too close to a tree while mowing the lawn. The left front wheel got knocked out of alignment and now it has a strong pull to the right. I checked the user's manual but it said that alignment is set at the factory and can only be done by a trained service technician. I inspected the front suspension and don't see any way to adjust anything. Anyone have any ideas?

Hit the tree again and knock it back the other way? :-)

BTW. Did you figure out the electric problem you had? Never saw how
you fixed it ... not starting.


The new lawn tractor has the alignment problem; the old lawn tractor, that I use for hauling stuff around the place, is the one with the electrical problem. I jumped the solenoid and the starter whirred. I replaced the solenoid but it still wouldn't start. I hooked up the volt meter to the various terminals of the starter switch while seated and pressing down the clutch , but didn't get any voltage on any setting. Tomorrow I'm going back to the parts store for a new starter switch.

And a test light or Voltmeter and a book on basic electricity?
