test starter and solenoid for voltage /amp draw

what ever height you set it at. they are adjustable

It sounds as thought one of the hydraulic motors has failed. You need to take it to a dealer to get it repaired.

The fact that it happened so suddenly makes me think the drive belt snapped. Sometimes when that happens the belt will "hide" up in the machine, hanging on the transaxle, so you need to get in there and try and spot it. If it had fallen on your lawn, it would be obvious. Other than that, I agree with Mike Squire. Gotta be one of those things.

Look no further my friend, because your model doesn't have an oil filter. I have verified that through YouTube videos.

battery's typically don't last over four seasons (new) even less if its left outside in the freezing cold if your battery is older than that , id say your due a new one ,a simple hack is to have your tractors charging system ck'd by a service station(some even advertise doing it for free ) , tractors use a similar system as cars do to maintain there batterys (but smaller) so the same equipment that helps to diagnose cars works the same on tractors

Hi: I sounds like it is not getting gas, it probably need the carburetor cleaned out. but first make sure the gas is turned on, tighten the carb . I you have left it for a long time with out running the gas out it most likely needs the carb cleaned Good Luck I hope I was of some help

Have you checked battery voltage and amperage? Also check starter solenoid for 12 volts while trying to start. Starter could also be weak.
