Hi..
Just bought my Max 4 a few days ago. (I drove 7 hours to get it, then 7 hours home!) I had to put a chain on the left side, lube the chains and sprockets and took it for it's 1st run. Some grinding noises, and I was unable to climb a very very small incline. my tires on the left side kept spinning, and dug a hole. I'm very, very new to this... backing up, does this thing only back up straight?? or can I turn while I'm backing up? cause I'm not able to turn and back up. So I had to push the machine out of the tire ruts to get it to go up. Is this normal? Also at faster speeds it seems to turn ok, but slow it does not want to turn. How can I check the transmission? or what are signs to look for if it's going bad, and does anyone know where I can get a operators and maintenance manual?
any help on this would be great!
Thanks,
Kevin
