Hello All,
I have been visiting for a couple of years now & finally have a question.
I was mowing some tall (4' - 5') grass for my mother-in-law this past weekend with my '51 cub & 42" Woods mower. The front yard went well, but about the second time around the back yard, something went crunch and the PTO was no longer turning. I had the mower all of the way up, and was taking about a 2' wide cut per turn around the yard.
The PTO shaft & pulley seem to be a little further out the back than usual, but I wouldn't swear to that. I put the cub on my trailer & took it home. I then loaded up my F**d and finished with a bush hog.
Now my question: Does anyone have any ideas what I might have broken? I plan to tear into it this week, but was just wanting some ideas before I turned a wrench.
Also, is there anyone in the SW Fort Worth area that might be available for me to call on for advice?
Thanks,
\s\ Robert

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

Big Dog - Thanks for the link! I printed it out & will look at those things when I get home from work.
Donny M - I know where Oakwood is. I have some property off of FM831 west of there. I'll let you know if I get in trouble after checking things out.
hr's49cub - Nope, not I. We just bought this house remodeling is all done. And I don't even have a 5th wheel!
Thanks all,
\s\ Robert
