Runs great, got used from friend. Must HOLD BLADE ENGAGEMENT HANDLE DOWN while riding.
After de-rusting deck (all moves and lubricated) and replacing blade belt (waste of money) could not find cause
of why handle will not stay engaged allowing me to use right hand to drive. Invented own cam
solution to problem.

works now. FIXED - hope this helps you

Any ideas what is real problem appreciated. I am stumped.

FYI: Had issues uploading the image. file too large. wish they fixed this.

Nothing for your mower problem but you can correct the picture problem yourself, just downsize your photos before trying to post them and they will work fine. I have the same problem because I always take digital photos at the best sizes and must downsize for almost all the sites I post on. Good luck on the mower fix I'm sure someone here will get you an answer.

We need the complete model and serial number for your Lawn tractor????

If you cannot furnish this info I think you have it fixed.
