ENGINE KILL CIRCUIT (FIGURE 12-7)
The exciter coil in the ignition coil supplies electrical power for the spark plug, therefore the proper way to
stop the engine is to run this electrical power to ground, by-passing the spark plug.
The engine kill circuit consists of the key switch, a kill limit switch that is activated by the accelerator pedal, a
neutral lock-out limit switch that is activated by a cam located on the back of the forward and reverse assem-
bly, and connecting wires. The engine can be stopped by releasing the accelerator pedal, turning the key
switch to the OFF position, or by shifting the forward and reverse assembly to neutral (Figure 12-12, Page
12-6).
REVERSE BUZZER CIRCUIT (FIGURE 12-8, PAGE 12-6)
The reverse buzzer is a safety warning device that sounds when the vehicle is in reverse. Its functions are to
remind the operator not to leave the vehicle in reverse and to warn anyone in the area that the vehicle is in
reverse.
The reverse buzzer circuit consists of a reverse buzzer, reverse buzzer limit switch, key switch, the fuse
block, and connecting wires.
The battery supplies power through the fuse block and is controlled by the reverse buzzer limit switch that is
activated by a cam located on the back of the forward and reverse assembly. When the forward and reverse
lever is placed in reverse, a cam depresses the reverse limit switch, closing the circuit. The reverse buzzer
sounds.
