I could be wrong, but I doubt your starter is causing the fuse to blow. When you are out there putting th 2072 to work, the fuse blows during run cycle. That's when your PTO goes out because it loses power after fuse blows. Tractor can still run because it has magneto and does not need power. The starter is inactive since the machine is running and you are not in start cycle.
In summary, IMO,.... the loose starter is a separate and different issue and is probably not connected to blowing the fuse. The starter, by itself, is not directly connected thru the fuse but the solenoid which activates the starter is connected thru this fuse
When you get your starter fixed.... since you stated you aren't electrically inclined, I wonder if the fuse blow if you NOT use the PTO and/or the lights? If fuse still blows without the use of PTO and lights, you could could eliminate those two possible culprits if not completely.
