I bumped a tree with the mower and now the Rear-end won't drive the mower

It's the kind with the rubber wheel that rolls agains the belt driven Plate.

Its not the rubber wheel, I can turn it by hand and the wheels start to move the mower then starts slipping.

Is there a Shear Pin somewhere and if so where?

Or what else can it be and how do I get to the dumb thing?

Thanks in Advance

Check the square key that keys the
axle to the wheel, may be sheared

Tinhorn,
If you have a close look at the rear end of the machine their should be a bracket there that a guide for the wheel. The bet is the bracket is bent which will cause the rubber wheel to slip.

Regards,
Bruce

Bill, you were right! Thanks a Million

And Bruce, thanks for your input, I will remember to check this too, if I have more problems.
