Repairs LX188 pto clutch bolt coming loose

This is the second time that this has happened, heard rattling noises while mowing and stupidly did not stop.
The mower deck quit cutting but engine still running. The 4 inch or so 7/16 bolt on the end of the crankshaft and its washer were gone, clutch dropped down. Couldn't find the bolt or washer in the grass where I had been mowing, they weren't on the deck.
Bought a genuine JD bolt and cup washer, cleaned and used Locktite. Torqued to about 50 ft/lb (estimate) but
don't see how to keep the engine shaft from turning when tightening the bolt.
Any ideas ?
Thanks.
