1987 was the 2nd last year that Ingersoll made the 446 model and if the tractor is original, then it should sport 25th Anniversary decals on each side of the dash tower.
The snow blower and mower deck are both belt driven via a mechanical PTO clutch mounted on the front of the engine, which is engaged manually by pushing a lever on the left side of the dash tower. If the clutch is not adjusted properly or it has parts that are badly worn, then it can behave the way you describe. Most of the time, the clutch can be repaired using readily available new parts.
Pricing for a 446 with just a mowing deck can vary widely based upon the condition as well as the location. That said, I feel that $1500.00 for such a machine is far too much money unless there are other solid reasons to justify that figure.
The problem here is that you are not familiar with this brand of tractor and it may have optional equipment that would add value. I can help you further if you send me an e-mail that includes the serial number of the tractor PLUS four good photos that show the front, rear and sides of the tractor along with the name of the state where this is taking place.
