General information
The engine is turned off and stopped by releasing a lever on the lawnmower. The cable acts on a lever
which simultaneously activates a microswitch that sends the coil to earth as well as a brake which acts
on the flywheel.
The brake must be able to stop the engine within 3 seconds after it is turned off.
To solve problems in the system for turning off and stopping the engine, see the relevant chapter [
15] .
To get access to the system for turning off and stopping the engine, remove the starter assembly and the
fan.
