The STX-38 should have an electric clutch for the mower deck. The switch to engage it is on the right rear fender. It is a toggle switch. You will have to pull up on the switch and forward to engage the blades.
look for the engage switch that has a picture of blades
why does my rider cut off when i engage the blades
transmission won't engage when you push the button on john deer 155c automatic
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.
on a racing lawn mower it would be good, just rev up your engine and will engage.
because it needs a 1600 vee dub engine in it to make it go faster to have lawn mower races
when I try to engage gears of mower blades, the engine dies under the load. Read wheels also lock when fowrad and rear gears are engaged.
The manual pto is the switch used to engage the mower deck.
Had same issue with one of the wheels not turning - removed the rear wheel and found that the pawl was stuck, There is a small spring that pushes the pawl out in forward motion and re tracks when the mower is pulled backwards. The pawl can become stuck in allowing the axle to turn but not the wheel.
check the front and back belt pulleys and if the elt is on the right side of the engager.
The safety switch to start the motor on a Ranchking riding mower is located in the ignition. If the clutch needs to be depressed several times before the mower will start, there might be a problem with the adjustment of the clutch.
