Best Answer

probably a loose or streched drive belt. also the drive pulley could be loose. the main thing wrong is that it is a craftsman. my experience with craftsman products has been very unhappy, they are starting to make junk. try a JOHN DEERe product the next time you will be glad you did.

When i start my craftsman lawn mower it runs time but when the clutch is engaged it dies.?

Your clutch has to be engaged when you start your mower or at least my craftsman mower does. If it dies when you release the clutch pedal, it is due to the engine shutoff relay which is wired to the electric clutch. There are 2 wires on the lower left side of the mower that run along the inside of the frame to the clutch. These wires run just above the mower deck belts and connect to the top of clutch. They are so close that sometimes they get entangled with the deck belts causing them to be torn loose or rub the insulation off and expose the bare wire (which will cause it to ground out if it comes in contact with metal). You need to find and inspect these two wires all the way from the clutch to the point they come up through a hole in the frame floor that the engine is bolted to.


How does an electric PTO clutch work on a craftsman riding mower?

The electric PTO Clutch is Electromagnetic. There is a stator which creates a magnetic field when voltage is applied and this causes the free spun pulley to lock into place with the crankshaft of the engine. When voltage is release, spring pressure forces the pulley away from the stator. This is over simplified but that is about it.
