With over 900 hours this machine is acting up a little. Took the deck off to do the maintenance, sharpen the blades, put on a new belt and getting it back together the belt engages good but when I undo the mower blade engagement rod, the blades don't totally stop and spins real rough so I have to just turn it off instead of damaging the new belt. so the manual says either belts routed incorrectly or Mower blade engagement rod needs adjustment, or Spindle brake needs adjustment or replacement and looking at the photos the spring that is supposed to be on the PTO rod holding it up off the deck is missing. I've never adjusted this before but something needs to change so I can drive around with the blades off. Any suggestions or ideas?
