Hi guys,
I got the mower deck attached to my 129 and the engine didn't want to start. Finally took the mower drive belt off the PTO and then the engine started no problem. I rebuilt the engine and PTO this winter and I'm usually pretty good about following instructions so I think I got everything put back together and adjusted on the PTO properly. Any hints? The PTO clutch is a bit mystifying to me. Should the PTO spin freely on the shaft with the engine off? I replaced the PTO shaft bearing also. Any help would be appreciated.
