Questions and answers

May 26, 2025

I ran over par of a buried rubber tire and now the blades will not engage. Is there a sheer pin I need to replace? It sounds like clutch is engaging. Also, don’t know if this is just a coincidence or if it was related to hitting the tire, but my deck will lower but not come back up. The fuses all look fine. Any ideas on fixing that? Thank you for any help
