S250 loosing power when turning circles

[Rotaxxx]

Not sure what may be up here, or if it's anything to worry about but my S250 seems to loose power and almost die out when doing a complete circle in one spot. The rest of the machine has lots of power for lifting, tires will also spin if you put it up against something. Any ideas what's up here? Anything to worry about?

I'd start simple and change the fuel filter.

Sorry forgot to mention, I just changed all the filters on it 40 hours ago. But I guess it could still be giving trouble. I will have to get one next time I go to the city and give that a go. Thanks!

Drain the fuel filter into a clean container to look at the fuel. If you have water or crap in the fuel, the filter can plug pretty quick. Fuel filter cause over 90% of running problems so its always good to get it out of the way before going any further.

Check to make sure your unit is not locked in the 2-speed mode; switch at the control or the solenoid itself. You lose torque when turning in slow speeds when on 2-speed. It's a common effect.
