your linkage came apart from the way it sounds. most all these riding lawn mowers are simple machines. you need to fallow the(flopppy lever) and see where it go's it is supposed to attach to a rod or cable and must have came unhooked

SOURCE: Drive belt install on JD GT275

The bracket with loops keeps the belt in position when it is slack (disengaged). The bracket usually has to be loosened to even get the new belt on, the belt ONLY runs on the pulleys.

those fluid drive transmissions fail on quite a few brands as they all use the same ones....replace the trans...they are expensive but still cheaper than a new mower.

Go to this website, upper right hand corner and do a parts look up. Search for your model and that good stuff they ask of you and then choose mower housing should be there, browse the site it's really cool and has a lot of info.

Why did my Husqvarna Zero Turn just stop going forward or backwards all of a sudden?

Could be bad clutch, or the transmission shift linkage has come apart or bent.

Depress drive pedal forward or reverse, tractor will not move

Assume it's a hydrostatic transmission - most probably the drive belt has come off or broken. Be sure to replace it with a Kevlar belt as changing the belt isn't easy and you don't want to have to repeat the process too soon.

The tractor will not go forward or backward it starts right up but will not engage

1) The drive belt between the engine and transmission has broken or jumped off a pulley.
OR
2) Your hydrostatic transmission is dead.

DO NOT STICK YOUR FINGERS UP INSIDE A RUNNING MOWER TO SEE IF THE DRIVE BELT IS MOVING.

G2000 Kirby HELP

I'm not familiar with this type of vacuum, but if it's like most kirby's the powerhead gets all its motion off the tapered spindle underneath the powerhead. IF the belt is installed backwards on this spindle then all motions are reversed. there should be an arrow stamped into the blower housing. the belt should be installed so it is nearest to the arrow in the direction of the arrow on the housing.
