Jacobsen Tri-King 1900D issue with driving blades

[Jay Thompson]

Evening all, I recently bought an above ride on mower for our football club. It is an older one but I am having problems with the Reel/AWD switch to get the blades to cut. The switch does not seem to move. Is there anything I am doing wrong????

Maybe this will help.

Reel / 3WD Switch
Used to engage mowers and also select two wheel
drive or three wheel drive (2WD or 3WD).
a. Pull the lever upward and forward to engage
clutch and engage 3WD mode.
b. Push switch lever down to disengage clutch and
engage 2WD mode.
