    Bolen lawn tractor stops when put in reverse
    I have a Bolen lawn tractor when you put it in reverse it stops running.
    It will run in all gears but reverse.
    Can anyone tell me what the problem might be.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Does this happen both when the deck is engaged and not or just with the deck on? There is a safety switch for when the deck is on and reverse is engaged.
    Peace,
