Husqvarna RZ5424 Review, Maintenance Tips, Neutral Control Issues, and Nuetral Adjustment

  • Опубліковано 28 січ 2020
  • This is a 2012 residential Husqvarna RZ5424 with a Kawasaki 24hp engine and 54 inch cutting deck. It has been a fairly decent mower over the years as I've made sure to keep up on yearly maintenance to give me trouble-free service - things like keeping up with oil changes, greasing zerk fittings, air in tires etc. A couple of quips I have include the tires and the seat. The tires are good for mostly flat surfaces but go downhill fast (literally and figuratively) when going around a slope sideways and if there is any moisture present on the grass. This is not an issue of old tires or something that developed over time - this has happened from the time when the mower was new. The issue with the seat is that it's from the bargain bin and it could use a taller back and some armrests. I cut about 1.25 acres with this mower.
    Something I'll be repairing in this video is adjusting the neutral control. The neutral control keeps the mower from slowly creeping when levers are in the neutral position. If your mower creeps in neutral, the neutral control needs to be adjusted, and I'll show you how it can be done on your Husqvarna RZ5424.
    How to adjust the Neutral Control on your Husqvarna RZ5424
    1. Jack mower rear end.
    2. Take off wheel.
    3. Take off linkage.
    4. Loosen adjustment screw.
    5. Start mower.
    6. Rotate nuetral control bracket adjustment until there is no rotation.
    7.Tighten adjustment screw.

    I have the same mower. I have serviced it myself for 7 years and finally sent it in for service last summer. When I got it back, I noticed that sometimes it wouldn't start even when I had the parking brake engaged. I yank hard on the brake and wiggle it and eventually it would start. However, I have had a couple of times that it just wouldn't start. Where is the kill switch in the brake linkage and can I adjust it?

    silly question- what the heck you running it for in wet grass? otherwise, decent video, I see the logic in "oiling " the under side of deck to keep it from rusting, but I can see potential issues with dirt and grass sticking, wreaking havoc on bearings and idler arms, etc. wouldn't it be more effective to install wash ports and keep it clean and dry? I work "in the industry,'" and really only see rust being a problem on decks that people allow grass to build up and never clean, and thats only a small %, mainly on OLD (around 2000+/- a few years) MTD mowers. however, I just spent a good amount of time cleaning and replacing deck controls on a dixon that i believe someone decided to lube to make " work better," but all it did was attract dirt, which became a great "grinding" compound

    On my mower when I reverse and let off the drive bars it returns to neutral, but when I push forward and let go of the bars it continues to go forward and infact will eventually speed up to full speed. When I look at the mechanism on my Gravely or Cub Cadet the spring on the hydro motors brings both forward a reverse back to neutral, but not the Husqvarna. Its a little hard to explain without pictures but the the little brackets on the hydros (the forward ones) are different from my other 2 machines?? What's the reason for this??

    I have a Z254f that I purchased used last summer. Husqvarna says to give the front wheel mounts & bearings 3-4 strokes of grease, the deck spindles 2-3. Most other mowers that I have had required grease until it came out around the various seals. It seems like you could come up short on grease by following Husqvarna's instructions. What are your thought s on this?

    • @1stNCYANKEE
      @1stNCYANKEE 3 роки тому

      You should never grease anything until it comes out the seals.

    • @dspnnetwork7292
      @dspnnetwork7292  3 роки тому

      This situation is easily remedied. A pressure release mechanism is built into every hydraulic pump. Yours may be in the released position.
      Basically there are 2 types.
      1) A bolt on the pump that you can turn (usually has a hole going through it.)
      2) Residential units have 2 rods at the front or rear inside of the drive wheels that you push/pull.
