Question posted by suthernboy60 on June 10th, 2020

The Mower Suddenly Stopped Moving Forward Or Backward.

My sister-in-laws RZT S50 cub cadet mower will not move forward or back. The engine starts easily. She was mowing and paused for a moment to move something out of the way and when she got back on, it would not move. What are the possible issues?
