Why will the blades not engage on L130 John Deere Riding Mower Blades Not work?
This has actually happened to me. There are some things you want to check.Make sure the blades are able to turn.Check your belts.Another problem might be with your PTO engage switch, these rarely burn out but the one on my tractor did.Check all things that engage the PTO, make sure all the lines and wires are connected and operational.My absolute best advice is to check with a dealer, but run over these things first so you don't go running to them with a simple problem.
How do you engage the cutting blade on a john deere 165 hydro riding mower?
There's a yellow switch in the upper right hand portion of the dash. It's the PTO drive. Engage your clutch, pull up on the switch and move it forward, and that should start the blades spinning. If it fails to engage, it could be a bad switch or a bad battery.
What does live power on a tractor mean?
The term live power, or live power take-off, or just power take-off or PTO, is used to specify a feature of a piece of equipment like a tractor that has the ability to push or pull an aparatus, and also to separately drive the mechanical parts of the apparatus. In something like a brush cutter, the tractor pulls the cutting unit, and a separate drive shaft takes power from the tractor and transfers it to the cutter section to drive the cutter blades.

Why won't my blades engage on my Craftsman riding mower - Belt is OK. Engage lever and nothing happens. Model 917.256501?
Sometimes the belt will slip off the pulleys and sit almost where they are supposed to be and look OK from a distance. If the belts are OK then check linkage to see if something has come off .If it is an electric clutch on it then check switches loose wires and the clutch. Hope this helps.
