SOURCE: blade engagement lever won't disengage

If this is a manual engagment system all the lever does is to pull a jockey wheel into the back of the belt to tention it thus starting the blades to turn, so either the cable is jammed that pulls the jockey wheel in, or the jockey wheel arm is seized and needs freeing off to allow the jockey to to move to the relaxed position.

I have a Craftsman DLT 3000 that continually runs on high. Starts fine and blades engage properly. Tried adjusting the throttle but it continues to run on a very high speed. Any ideas? Started doi

Ensure the throttle Cale is actuating the throttle lever on the carberator. If so, then the trouble is in the carb itself.

My YTS 3000 will run but the blades won't engage. Engagement lever is really hard to push up but when I try to engage blades, nothing. Could it be the cable?

Find where the cable is connected to the deck. Have someone move the lever and watch the end. Does it look rusted or bent?
Unclip the cable at the deck. Then try the cable. If it moves freely there is something rusted, bent or broke on the engage pulley mechanism on the top of the deck.
