"Loose" Prestige steering.

[Bruker 2]

Is the power steering on a Prestige adjustable? I really like the power steering on my Prestige but when I'm traveling in a straight line I have to constantly make corrections to keep it going straight. Any ideas?

Should still be under warranty if less than 2 years old. If so I would let the dealer fix it.

I have heard that this is a problem that can arise in those types of power steering setups, but it seems to me it was on the earlier Landlords that had that setup that I heard the problems were on. I dont know what they do for a fix, but its either repairing or replacing the power steering unit. A several hundred dollar repair either way. If it is indeed a common problem dealers should have a service bulletin on it.

It's a Prestige Model 1694618, I purchased it August of `04. How long is the warranty period on these tractors?

Generally 2 years from date of purchase on new equipment for personal use. The paperwork with your tractor should have information on what is covered and for how long.
