I ran into exactly the same problem when I replaced the bendix on my Super H with a brand new one.
Apparently the lead-in ramp on the male screw on the new bendix was not properly cut. This caused the pinion to jam when it got spun back home by the ring gear as the engine started.
Unfortunately I needed the tractor right away - could not afford time exchange the sticky bendix for another one. So I put a couple spots of weld on the OD of the male bendix screw to stop the pinion about 1/4" away from the point where it was jamming. Cleaned the weld faces up a bit with a file (so the pinion was hitting a flat surface) then put the starter back on the tractor. It's been working perfectly ever since - about 6 years now.
