Starter on MF35 Turf won't turn over

Posted by Mark from Howell, MI on August 05, 2004 at 18:34:05 from (165.121.213.33):

This afternoon I backed out my MF35 Gas Turf Special and turned it off to grease the fittings on the tractor and finish mower before cutting grass. I jumped back on the tractor and tried to start it and the nothing but a click. I cleaned all contacts from battery to selinoid and starter cables and replaced one of the battery clamps which appeared damaged and still get only a click. I tried jumping it with vehicle and battery charger and still nothing. Now I was told to remove cover underneath transmission and try and to get fly wheel to move. Can I do that by dragging the tractor in gear???
I rebuilt the engine 4 years ago and has operated just like new, So I know the engine is fine. It"s been so long since I removed the starter is ther anything I should be careful with when removing if the starter is the problem. Thanks Mark
