Sears Craftsman 19HP, 46" mower, Model 917.203850.

I recently changed the transmission belt due to a mouse built a nest and the belt was out of alignment and ripped apart. While working on the tractor I decided to change both the drive and mower belts. I used the tractor for the 3rd time and it stopped moving. Transmission belt is ok and moving, I did notice a little fraying on the new drive belt. Any guidance would be great on what might be the problem.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

@mac512 if your drive belt and your linkage is properly installed take a look at the belt on your transmission. See if that is working properly. If all that is okay you will have to determine what type of transaxle your mower uses. Check for any tags, labels anything at all which may help to do so.
