Toro 1028 pulls to the left, how to adjust?
Original Message   Jan 19, 2010 12:11 pm
I've used the 1028 for 2 storms and now the unit pulls to the left just enough that sometimes I need to use the opposite cable to keep it straight. It mostly does this when it's under load. It was not doing this before. My dealer doesn't know much since this is their first year selling Toro, wish I had known that before I bought from them. They say they are trying to find out but so far they are still looking into it. I'm sure it's an adjustment and I did download the service manual. But I'm not sure if it's a cable length adjustment or something else. More snow is falling and I'd like to get this fixed. I did call Toro and they can't offer any help at all except to tell me to contact a dealer.

If the dealer I bought from picks it up it'll be $65 delivery round trip and probably 2 weeks before they can get to it.

Any ideas??

Hi, regarding the dealer charge for pickup. If the machine is under warranty Toro will pay for pick and delivery. I believe it is for a 15 mile trip. I had to have warranty work on my 1995 powershift and I had it serviced at a dealer near my home not where I bought it. THey picked up and delivered and sent the bill to Toro. I'd check out the warranty.
