New deck belt not disengaging

It is a 2004 MTD Yardman 42" deck. 13A766OG752.
I replaced the belt that the 2nd had mower came with with a Kevlar 754-0371A, 74" x 5/8" belt. It was not possible to see what the old belt was but my research tells me this is the correct belt.
Now when I try to start the engine the deck is engaged. I have now burned out my solenoid but that's an easy fix.
Can anyone shed any light on this problem?
Cheers
