I just did some repairs to the transmission, replaced the main input gear and bearings. I reinstalled with a new belt (1/2" X 89") now the mower runs forward and reverse as it should, so I am confident in that repair, but when I push in the clutch it continues to move. Looking under the mower when it is running the belt is continuing to turn and wont disengage from the front pulley causing the transmission pulley to turn. The brakes are good and will stop it, but the pulley turns so the it wont come in to or out of gear easily. I believe I have the belt routing correct according to diagrams. The rear idler is adjusted all the way in, loose, as is the front adjustable idler. There are static belt guides on the transmission so I don't think that is it. The only adjustable one is up front and I believe that is in the right place as well. Any other good solutions to this. Belt should be the correct length.
