Ferris mower problem

My Ferris mower, (Ferris calls the chassis that the deck mounts on a tractor), this afternoon started to loose the main drive belt. The piece that was whipping around took out the wire for the solenoid for the mower deck pulley. The mower of course stopped, then after about two seconds the engine quit and won't crank, and won't even cause the fuel pump to click as it normally does. Looking underneath It appears that the two conductors for the wire to the solenoid got firmly against each other and probably blew a fuse. Can anyone help with where this fuse may be? The mower is about twelve years old with what I believe is a 19 HP Kawi, and a 62 inch deck.

Go to http://www.ferrisindustries.com/operator-manuals/ to find the manuals and wiring diagram for your mower. If they don't go that far back you may have to visit your local dealer and get a copy.
 
Showcrop without a model number there is ZERO way we can be much help. I looked on the Internet and found several wiring diagrams for a Farris mowers. So you need a little more information to find out what yours is.
 

After looking some more I found the parts book to my ISZKAV23. it shows two fuses; one in the main wire from Battery to start switch which should not be too hard to find and the other in the wire that is labeled "connect to charge circuit". I have a feeling that both are probably under the main control console.
