Self-propel Quit Operating
The self propel mechanism quit working while tilling. It was going along just fine when it stopped turning the wheels. It didn't make any noise, didn't sound like anything broke. Pulled the belthouse ing to check that the belt was engaging the pulley and everything there seems to be working fine. Wheels turn freely but it won't engage in till or transport mode.
