I have a Craftsman LT2000 tractor and I've had a problem engaging and disengaging the cutting blades. For awhile the blades wouldn't engage and now they will not disengage. I've replaced the mower deck belt recently. Does anyone have any ideas on how to adjust or repair this problem.

Hi, Have you tried to turn the blades by hand ( WITH THE MOTOR OFF ) I suspect there may be some transit packing that you may have missed. The blades should turn freely with the motor off and the blade engaged. There is a blade brake which stops the blades turning when the drive is disengaged which might need adjusting .
Hope this helps.
Check shear pins in the blades . Tyr turning by hand with power shut off. If you can turn by hand then I am sure the shear pins are broken. Check drive belts as well.
