There are two separate belts underneath. The upper belt goes to the hydrostatic transmission. The lower belt goes to the cutting deck. Please be sure about the belt being fine. Unless the belt is new, the belt could be stretched. The pulleys and tensioning devices will need to be inspected for wear, damage and function.

SOURCE: change blades on a lawn tractor pony? troy built

just jack it up so you can get under the deck and unscrew the bolt on center of ech blade take note on how the curves of blade are angled do one at a time incase you forget but bolt back up tight and you are ready to cut if you try to resharpen the blades make sure you balance them or they will mess up the deck bearings

SOURCE: I have Troy Hydrostatic 46" when I attempt to

If you lower the blade deck and get down near the mower, you can see the blades belt on top of the deck. If it is intact, with the engine off, have someone try to engage the blades. A tensioner should move into place to tighten the blades. If it is not, follow the engagement lever to under the dash to see if there is a cable broken or a rod detached.

SOURCE: Mower runs fine but shuts off when the blades are engaged.

This sis a micro switch issue, start by checking/replacing the seat switch, make sure the block connecter is fully pushed home onto the micro switch.

My troy built 210 6.75 hp mower self propelled mower doesnt pull

remove the front black plastic plate that is stamped self propelled and replace the wheel drive belt that attaches the engine pulley (above blade) to the transmission pulley (found under the cover). When you buy the belts, pick up two or three as I seem to go through a couple per season. Hopes this helps

Troy built lawn mower (riding) won't go full

I did not know riding mower had a gas pedal. I know if you leave the throttle control up all the way the engine will choke out. The pedal you are pushing, I think, is the forward/reverse hydrostatic transmission. You may need a new drive belt. The one you have now may be stretched out.
Good Day.

Mower stopped moving

If this is a manual transmission, check the drive belt from the engine back to the transmission. With the clutch pedal up (engaged) there should be no slack in the belt.

If it is a hydrostatic drive, check the drive belt and make sure it is tight. Check the transmission fluid level and make sure it is full. Refer to your owners manual as it will describe the fluid check proceedure.
Good luck, let me know.
