SamB frankly it has me baffled. The videos I posted (hope they are visible) shows what I'm going through. The machine moves whether the pin (levers) are in or out. The trans is never disengaged.

StarTech and bertsmobile1, I have uploaded two short videos of this issue to Youtube so you can see what I'm seeing. Here they are. [This is the first time I've uploaded to Youtube. I hope I got it right]

Thank you

Stan5686, I just read your post from 2019. What did you find out about your F691 engine? I have a 2013 models with 260 jrs. It's starting to smoke at start up. However, l just changed oil. Went from 10w30 to 20w50. I don't know if treats the issue or if I'm starting to have a problem like...

Bertsmobile1, the pin is connected to an arm as you say. But there is not resistance at all that I can feel. It just slides back and forth as if not connected to anything.....both sides. Another thing l didnt mention is those pins are not straight. They are both in a rather oddly bent...

bertsmobile 1 I think you have it backwards.

Thanks Star Tech. It sounds like this will likely be taking out both transaxles and looking inside them. Sounds really expensive....and thats IF I can find a shop qualified at that. Right now I'm thinking since I can use it I might wait for fall when the mowing season is over; and I don't...

I'm pushing them in, and with that small ring on the pin latched behind the frame. That small ring is not visible when I push them in. So I assume they're "latched" in. This last time (today) I laid down on the floor and pushed them in as far as they would go before I started the engine. The...

2013 Toro MX5060 (50") zero turn. It doesn't matter if the pins are pulled out or pushed in, the machine still moves. It doesn't seem to disengage the transaxle for manually pushing the mower. For mowing, the machine works fine. Today I tested to see if the machine would move with the pins...

Today I did this. Pushed in both transaxle pins to disengage the transaxle. Then got on the mower, started it and pushed the control handles to drive it. It moves -- so it doesn't make any difference if the pins are pushed in or out, the machine moves. Thats what I suspected; I suspect...

bertsmobile1, (1) I would think it would be easy to roll too. Videos I've seen shows a guy pushing it pretty easily. Although, he was on concrete and I was in grass. I got it back from the shop today. They put on the drive belt. But they said they also found 3 of 4 bolts mounting the...

Flygirl, I've done that when the drive belt came off. I pushed in both transaxle levers at the back , both handles in driving postion, and ignition turned on disengaging the electric brake. It took two of us to manually to roll it in the yard. The only way I got it up the ramp of the trailer...

I have 2013 Toro MX5060. Drive belt came off and took it into the shop. As we unloaded it off the trailer the man noticed the trans was not disengaged, even with the levers pushed in. It had always been like this....and I just thought it was heavy and hard to push. The guy said no way should it...
