Sorry, it has been a very busy couple of weeks but I did receive them, and I really appreciate it. I am hoping things will calm down in the next few weeks and I can get time to read through them, and tinker on my mower a little bit.
I have been mowing with it a little bit, and I am still having problems with the PTO disengaging. The new belt I put on is running fine, so I do not know if its a wire shorting out temporarily disengaging it or if it is a bad switch, or potentially a bad PTO unit. It runs great when it is running. I have noticed that it usually disengages when I am going downhill (very weird, I know). The previous owner has taken out all over-ride switches etc such as the seat safety switch so lord knows what kind of hacked up wiring is on the mower. The other weird thing is when the PTO disengages, I do not have to turn the switch all the way off, then re-engage the switch to activate the PTO, I just push it back up and it kicks on. I was trying holding the PTO switch all the way up when going down hill to see if I could narrow the problem down while cutting, but unfortunately it started to rain so I put the mower away.
Any thoughts as to what the heck is going on, or a simple fix? I was thinking maybe just get a toggle switch, and re-wire everything with new wiring. Thanks again for the manual and the help you guys have provided so far.
