Steven,

I have seen the steer orbital fail and cause the steering to pull to one side. Jack steer axle of the ground and turn wheel until tires are straight. Start lift and slowly turn the wheel to the directions the operator stated to see if it takes off. May need to replace orbital, maybe operator? Good Luck
