Click on the 2nd & 3rd manuals it might help, AND if you had provided a year, model, & serial # it would help those trying to help you ! .:thumbsup:

It looks like this spring connects to the deck brake assembly from the wear marks for tension- when you engage the PTO arm for blades to start that is fine this spring
is to maintain that tension before engagement
