    2006 horse troybuilt lawn tractor
    When I engage the blades with the motor running, the engine powers down and the blades won't engage. If left too long it starts smoking under the front pulley and belt. I can't find any belts off. I need help as my husband is out of the country working and I have 3 acres to mow. THANK YOU!!

    Hi,
    Either a seized spindle or something jamming a blade.
    Peace,
    Clarke
