I would take a look at the deck belt mechanism. If you cannot move it far enough to engage fully, so that the blade brake releases completely, then there is something wrong with the mechanism. Many times clippings can build up on the deck, and either start to jam the mechanism, or keep it from moving full travel. Besides, it might need a bit of lubrication. Checking when a belt is replaced is not too often, and an annual clearing of debris, lubrication and inspection will set you ready for the season, or if done at the end, allow you to prepare for storage.
