I have a 2013 550 that I use to plow snow in the winter. Hasn’t snowed in a bit so I took the machine for a few runs up and down the driveway and it sounded like the engine was working harder than normal…almost like the brakes were sticking a bit. I plan to jack the unit up on blocks and spin the wheels to make sure none of the calipers have seized. I’ve never done this before so I’m looking for advice on the best way to test this. Should I have the unit in neutral? It could be nothing but I’d feel better knowing that I checked. Thanks in advance for your time and advice.
