Sometimes that trick does not work, so then you get out your 3/4" wrench, loosen the bolts that hold the starter on enough so you can pull the starter back, and then you will hear the click. Tighten the bolts again and it's done. Eventually, you WILL need to replace the drive on the starter, and quite possibly split the tractor and replace the toothed ring gear on the flywheel. The ring gear is not expensive, but the work involved in getting to it can be, unless you do it yourself.
