Hello to all. I am new here to posting but I try to read some from tome to time. I bought my lawn tractor new in 2006, about 575 hours on her. Last year it started acting up. I can cut fine with no problem but if I disengage the mower deck for any reason it will not re engage. I found that if I wait about 30 minutes & let it cool down I can Start it back up & the pto will engage & cut fine again. I have checked wiring connections & also yesterday when it cut out I checked for 12 volts to clutch connector & nothing there. I had my wife come out & sit on the seat & went through the whole startup procedure. I have replaced the pto switch & the clutch last year ( which was a waste of time if I would have checked for power to the thing first I would have never bought it. Anywhoo, sorry for the long paragraph but any help would be greatly appreciated. The wife told me to just go buy a new one, but now it is a matter of principle to figure out what the problem is. How dumb can I be with a green light on a new mower, right ? TIA, Bill
