Why won't the blades ingage

Potential reasons:

* Has your battery got full charge? A weak charge can keep the blades from engaging.

* Is your belt stretched too tight, worn-out or damaged? That can cause the belt to snap out of position.

* Is your drive belt which is under the seat, okay . . . because it engages and disengages the mower blade.

* Is your clutch working? Your riding mower blades won’t engage if the clutches are broken or the cable is damaged.

* Is your deck belt damaged? This can freeze the pulley system.
