New mower,automatic won't move

[oldtech]

Just purchased a Craftsman YT3000. Filled it up with gas, cranks fine but will not move in reverse of forward, parking brake off.
What am I missing?

check the lever on the back of the mower should be to the right and above the hitch it needs to be pushed in it its pulled out then it wont move push it in see if that makes it go good luck

Might be a good idea to READ the manual. There's more to these things than get on it and go.
