CRAFTSMAN Rear Engine Mower Parts Model ZTS7500

Go to Craftsman, Order Tree or Parts Tree.com and input your model number. Choose the correct tab and go to the mower deck. It will give you a good over view of how the belt routes. Hope this helps.

look on deck or under foot pedal there is usually a diagram in those places

Go to www.searspartsdirect.com Enter your model number in the appropriate box, when the page loads, look on the left side of the page where it says "Browse sub-components" and click on "tractor-schematic" this will open to a total wiring diagram for you

lift your seat and look at the label that you got your model number from. to the right of the model number is the serial number. the first six digits of the serial number is the date your tractor was made - for example: serial no. 060802D002756 would make the unit made June 8, 2002

A: Is the blade on right?

B: Is the belt on the pulley?

C: Is the blade tight on the spindle?

D: Does the spindle turn freely with the belt off?

I can't think of any other possibilities

You have to post the model number from under seat. Not all Craftsman decks are the same. There are 38", 42", 46" w/3 blades, 46" w/ 2 blades, 52", etc.. Better yet, Get the model number under the seat (starts with 917) and go to... http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/index.action Then enter the model #, hit search, then scroll down to Browse Subcomponent List and click on Mower Deck. There's your diagram.

sorry for not answering sooner but turns out it was the starter solenoid.
