Safety Interlock Switches
This tractor is equipped with a safety interlock system for the
protection of the operator. If the interlock system should ever
malfunction, do not operate the tractor. Contact an authorized
service dealer.
•
•
The safety interlock system prevents the engine from
cranking or starting unless the parking brake is engaged,
and the PTO (Blade Engage) knob is in the disengaged
(OFF) position.
•
The engine will automatically shut off if the operator leaves
the seat before engaging the parking brake.
•
The electric PTO (Blade Engage) clutch will automatically
shut off if the operator leaves the tractor’s seat with the
PTO (Blade Engage) knob in the engaged (ON) position,
regardless of whether the parking brake is engaged.
•
With the ignition key in the NORMAL MOWING position,
the electric PTO (Blade Engage) clutch will automatically
shut off if the PTO (Blade Engage) knob is moved into the
engaged (ON) position with the drive pedal in position for
reverse travel.
WARNING!
Do not operate the tractor if the
interlock system is malfunctioning. This system was
designed for your safety and protection.
