GR2100 mover will not engage

[Mgp629]

My mower just stopped turning.
When I engage the lever it feels like normal but there is no movement anywhere.
What should I check first?
thanks,
Mgp

The deck drive belt, see if it is broken or came off of the pulley.

The belt is intact and when I pull on it everything turns

is this a GR2100 or??

Yes it is a GS2100

to my knowledge they ain't no such thing as a gs2100. I asked if you had a GR2100 or what, and you said yes. Then said "yes I have a gs2100". Don't make no sense.

i can assume it's a gr2100. R not S?

if so you would've been WISE to have researched it and sold it while it was working to buy something that is more reliable and actually works when you want it to, and doesn't cost an arm and a leg to fix

anyway, gr2100 has a clutch for the blades, which is internal to the transmission. It often fails. Kubota makes a kit to "fix" it, but you gotta take the transmission out to do it. Well you don't "have" to take it out but it's a whole lot easier to do so rather than laying on your back trying to line everything up because if you don't get it lined up you WILL crack the case or the cover (often both) and at that point you're gonna have to buy a new one and then you're gonna have to pull it out anyway. The pto clutch kit isn't exactly cheap either, or wasn't the last time I put one in.

I do not have much love for the GR series mowers if you can't tell.

but with all that said I don't know what a GS2100 is never heard of it, nothing on a google search, is it a gray market or is it a EU or Aus market?

My mistake, it is a GR2100 . How do I find out if that is my issue?

You are correct it’s a GR2100

check all the linkages and drive shafts, making sure they're all "adjusted and installed" properly-you'll need a service manual for this. If that all checks out, the clutch is the only other possibility

turn the blades on or have an assistant do so, watch the drive shaft. If the shaft spins but blades don't there's possibility that the deck gearbox is failed. Not likely, at least not in "my" experience. It's usually the pto clutch.
