Question:
New YTH24K48, when driving straight the steering wheel is not centered. Is this easy to adjust?
Answer
The easiest possible fix is to remove the center cover on the steering wheel and with a 1/2 inch wrench or socket, remove the bolt holding the wheel on, pull the wheel and black gear, pull the upper steering shaft and rotate it may be 2 or 3 gear teeth, replace the black gear and line up the steering wheel. You may need to do this a few times to get the proper steering wheel alignment. You can refer to the front pages of your owner's manual and the assembly instruction sheets that came with your unit.

OK, I looked at the exploded parts view. It appears that the steering wheel itself is splined, which goes onto a gear. Coldn't I just take the steering wheel off and reposition it, instead of pulling the upper shaft and rotatiting it. I'm afraid if I pull the shaft up it may be hard to get it back in. Also, if removing the steering wheel in any way may cause the the shaft to come out, maybe I should leave it alone. Has anyone actually done this?
