Check that all battery/electrial connection are clean/tight after that try to isolate problem to starter motor or clutch on starter gear.
Internal starter motor problems can be caused by rust/carbon buildup in motor,worn or sticking brushes,weak/bad springs on brush holders,armature that has burned/pitted commutator bars & needs a turning/undercutting or replacement,open/shorted coil in armature,grounded/shorted field coil,worn/bad bearings,if you isolate problem to starter motor you're better off taking same to a shop that repairs auto starters/generators & let them check & repair/rebuild motor as needed or look for a used/rebuilt motor on ebay or online.
If problem in gear clutch,goto old gravelys website & read manual for serviceing clutch.
Check name plate on starter motor for voltage of motor or try to determine year of tractor,early mod tractors used a 6v starter,later models used a 12v starter,you may be useing a 6v battery on a 12v starter or previous owner may have damaged starter by useing 12v on a 6v starter.
