Hi, Something in the drivetrain is seized/locked up. Peace, crigby
clutch for (your model mower) on eBay or other site that sells mower parts
how to install a spring clutch on a murray mower
To adjust the clutch on a Craftsman riding mower, first, ensure the mower is on a flat surface and the engine is off. Locate the clutch adjustment mechanism, typically found near the clutch pedal or under the mower. Loosen the adjusting nut or bolt, make the necessary adjustments to the cable tension, and then re-tighten the nut or bolt. Finally, test the clutch operation to ensure it engages and disengages smoothly.
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.
Place mower near street with FREE MOWER sign. That is the best way to remove the clutch/drive on this POS mower.
first thing take the mower to the dump. secondly, push mower into the dump. third, leave the mower there.
Your mower has an electric PTO clutch that is worn out. It clutch stops working when it gets hot. Replace the PTO clutch and you should be fine. Expect to pay about $150 for the part.
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.
get a smaller pulley for the engine. as far as clutch I'm not sure
Many riding mower don't have oil filters. If your's does it is on the side of the engine toward the bottom and probably on the left side as you sit on the mower.

An electric clutch on a Simplicity riding lawn mower functions as a device that engages and disengages the mower blades through an electromagnetic mechanism. When the operator activates the switch, electrical current flows to the clutch, creating a magnetic field that pulls the clutch plate against the drive plate, engaging the blades. Conversely, when the switch is turned off, the current stops, allowing a spring to disengage the clutch and stop the blades. This system allows for smooth and efficient operation of the mower's cutting mechanism.
