Ariens 926LE snowblower won't engage forward or backwards. Running fine

Does the drive pulley on the engine work. I feel there has to be a broken shear pin some place. Start the engine and shine a good flash light on all the working parts with some one holding it in gear at an idle. You should be able to see if something is slipping.
Just be safety minded.

If this doesn't help, you might try posting the query with the Airens model number. There might be a service manual available, as well.

my ariens mower won't go forwards or backwards

I had the same problem with my 5HP Dual stage (C950-520240) Canadian model and found that the arm connected to the traction cable (part #85449 "Shaft Traction Clutch") which forces the friction disk up to the rubber friction wheel had a cracked weld and had bent, preventing positive contact with the rubber friction wheel. The drive wheels would turn if you lifted the back of the machine off the ground, but would not work if under load. First I replaced the belt and rubber friction wheel, but no go. I had to basically disassemble the whole drive assembly to find the problem, very frustrating because you could not see the crack in the arm from head on. I had the cracked and bent arm straightened and welded, all is OK now.
