First thing is to get down and look at the linkages. You may have a weld that came loose, or a nut that worked it's way off. You may also have something that bent.
Does the lever move all the way up but the deck doesn't move with it, or does the lever stick at the low level.
If it's sticking, you may just have picked up an obstruction like a stick or stone in the wrong place. You may also have a bent or damaged linkage.
Does one side or just the front or back lift up? One of the pins that hold the bars that it pivots on may have come off or broken as well. Looking underneath while someone works the lever for you can tell you a lot.
My troy-bilt hydro horse raises the back end but not the front, the level can be moved to 3 but it wont go any higher. Could you some help

SOURCE: john deere mower won't engage
on the engine there is a shaft with 2 pullys ,drive belt goes to the top closet to the engine lower pully is for the deck
there also is a saftey switch located on the deck which should shut down blade operation when raised. check the mandrels for broken bearings by grabbing the pully and wiggle them back and forth looking for movement could be possible that one madrel is shot giving you that bad sound which is crushed bearings

SOURCE: how to adjust the mower deck on my murray rider,
Park the tractor on a firm, level surface. . .
At the lower end of the lift/lower travel slot, there should be a plastic cover which you pop up so that your blade lift handle goes all the way down (it should say something about blade level on there somewhere. . . . .
After you have the handle in this position, look at the front lift arms of the mower deck and find the 2 large wing nuts, one on each side. . . . .
Loosen these while the deck is down and then retighten them Your deck is now level and will lift to its highest recommended position when you raise the lever

There are two belts - the main drive belt from the engine to the hydrostatic transmission, and the mower belt that runs from the engine to the mower deck. Sounds like the main drive belt broke or came off. It's not an easy job to replace because it's up against the chassis underneath, and you usually have to remove and replace some parts to get at it. Take a look under there, see if the belt's gone, and decide if you want to tackle it or have a shop do it.
