I was mowing when my RZT L just stop moving forward..................in fact it wouldn't move backward either. The steering levers feel as if I'm trying to push them through cold honey. Move them in all directions and nothing happens. Engine runs fine, blades engage and disengage just fine. Sure could use some suggestions as to where to start looking to solve this problem.

Hydrostat belt either came off or broke. Need to look up under the rear of the mower, above the deck belt

Look under the seat and give us your model and serial number, so we can help you with references if needed.

Cab Cadet also provides free manual downloads that cover lots of repair information but often has some missing segments.

Sorry I'm just now getting back to this. Had Dr.s appts all day.

The only thing I found under the seat was RZT 50............and a plate showing model numbers for things like spark plugs, grass catchers, etc., etc., etc. But couldn't find anything looking like a serial number. Couldn't find one on my shippers bill of lading. Couldn't find it in my owner's operating manual either. Doesn't make any sense, but I couldn't find it anywhere.

You are correct, that is a part listing label you saw, I had to look at mine just a minute ago. The product ID label is actually on the metal seat bottom, left side. Easy to miss if you don't flip the seat far enough.

Here is a picture:
