LOW OIL WARNING CIRCUIT (FIGURE 12-8)
The low oil warning circuit consists of an oil sending unit in the engine, a dash mounted oil light, and connect-
ing wires.
The light picks up power from the key switch when the key switch is turned to the ON position. When the oil
level in the crankcase is low, the oil sending unit closes the circuit to the ground and illuminates the oil light.
NEUTRAL LOCK-OUT CIRCUIT (FIGURE 12-9)
The neutral lock-out circuit prevents the operator from starting the vehicle in neutral. Also, if the vehicle is
started in forward or reverse and then shifted to neutral, the engine automatically stops running.
The neutral lock-out circuit consists of a limit switch that is located on the forward and reverse assembly and
is activated by a neutral-lock-out cam, a limit switch that is located in the electrical component box and is acti-
vated by the accelerator pedal, and the connecting wires.
The neutral lock-out cam is a feature included for the convenience of the trained and experienced mechanic.
If the neutral lock-out cam is pulled out approximately 3/8 inch (10 millimeters) and rotated one-half turn until
it snaps back into place, the vehicle will be in the SERVICE position (Figure 12-10). This allows the
mechanic to run the engine in neutral for certain maintenance procedures. With the cam in the SERVICE
position, the engine will start in neutral. If the forward and reverse switch is shifted to either the forward or
reverse position, the engine will stop running.
To put the vehicle back in the OPERATE position, pull the cam out approximately 3/8 inch (10 millimeters)
and rotate one-half turn until it snaps back into place (Figure 12-11).
