5.3 INTERLOCK SYSTEM ______________________________________________________
The Interlock System prevents the engine to start unless the parking brake switch is in the ON position, the traction
pedal is in the NEUTRAL position, cruise control switch is in the OFF position and the PTO switch is in the OFF (Down)
position. The system stops the engine if the operator leaves the seat with the PTO switch in the ON position, traction
pedal out of the NEUTRAL position or the parking brake switch in the OFF position.
Do each of these tests to make sure the Interlock System operates correctly. If any of the tests fail, stop the test and
have the system inspected and repaired as shown below:
• The engine does not start during test 1
• The engine does start during tests 2, 3, 4 and 5
• The engine continues to run during tests 6 and 7
Refer to the chart below for each test and follow the check (

ON position, the traction pedal is in the NEUTRAL position, cruise control switch is in the OFF position and the PTO
