It's locked up, because by then, you've put the hydro in neutral, which effectively blocks the oil from the hydraulic motor from attempting to turn the engine!

Which is a good thing, because without the motor running, and operating the charge pump in the hydro, there is a lack of lube flow to moving parts, and moving it beyound the point of pushing it a little ways by hand can damage $$$$ parts in the hyro motor.

Most LGT's have a lever, or a knob that you move to release the oil returning from the hyro motor, so it can be pushed a SHORT distance, but even with the release, it should NEVER be pushed or towed more than a matter of a few feet.
