Hi everyone, I have a 16 hp snapper RER model 421616BVE and I had the same thing happen to my mower the last time I used it at the end of last year. I was mowing a small ditch and all of a sudden it wouldnt pull it's self out, it's more of a small slope instead of a ditch. Anyway I had to push it out and it would barely pull itself. Over the winterI replace the the clutch disk, new blades, put a new belt on and new tires. I still have the same problem, it wont pull. I jacked up the back and started the mower, shifted it into 3rd and the wheels turn but as soon as I put my hand on the tire it stops the wheels. Any suggestions? Thanks in advanced
