My mower is only 2 months old. I went out today and it started fine but it would not go backward or forward. I tried locking/unlocking brake, turning mower off and pushing the mower. I pushed pedals with mower off with my hands. Still nothing. There is nothing in the manual in regards to this situation. The mower has been in the garage since I mowed last week. There was nothing unusual about the mowing. Help me please.

See if this is it. Transmission Bypass Rods (Not Shown) The transmission bypass rods (one for each the RH and LH transmission) are located beneath the frame platform, just inside each rear wheel. When engaged, the two rods open a bypass within the hydrostatic transmissions, which allows the tractor to
be pushed short distances by hand. Refer to SECTION 2: OPERATION for instructions on using the bypass feature.

From just in front of the two rear tires, locate the
transmission bypass rods. See Figure 23.
Pull one rod toward the front of the tractor until
the flange on the rod is forward of the keyhole
slot in the frame assembly.
Lower the bypass rod into the keyhole slot and
release so the rod flange is against the front of
the frame bracket.
Repeat the above procedure to engage the other
bypass rod.
