Drive Belt
The drive belt is the primary mechanical link between the engine's crankshaft pulley and the transmission input pulley. If the belt has snapped, jumped a pulley, or stretched beyond the tensioner's limit, the transaxle receives no rotational input, resulting in zero movement regardless of pedal position. This is the most common external mechanical failure for a sudden 'won't move' condition.

Hydrostatic Transaxle Assembly
The Tuff Torq K46 transmission uses a piston pump and motor to create movement. Over time, internal components like the cylinder blocks and valve plates can develop scoring or wear, leading to internal pressure bypass where the fluid circulates internally rather than driving the wheels. Total failure to move indicates the internal pump can no longer overcome the friction and load of the mower's mass.

Transmission Bypass Rod
The bypass rod, located at the rear of the mower, is designed to mechanically open the internal check valves of the hydrostatic circuit to allow the mower to be pushed manually. If this rod is bent, stuck in the 'out' position, or the return spring has failed, the hydraulic fluid will bypass the motor circuit entirely, preventing the mower from moving under its own power.
