Why won't my Poulan pro riding mower go into gear?

I bought this used 14.5 hp mower that ran great. We drove it into my truck. I unloaded it manually because it came without the battery. I unhooked the broken mower deck. Replaced the battery and back tires. The mower starts right up and sounds great... But won't go into gear! I've checked the belt, and the e-brake/clutch. I'm not sure if I disconnected something when I took the deck off, or if there's another safety feature that I'm not aware of??? Thanks so much

make sure the transmission locking pin on the rear of the mower is fully engaged -- if not it wont go into gear.
