How It Works

DSCN-0150a
This single pole plunger (normally open) type switch
has two terminals. When the motion control handles
are in the neutral position (handles in the out position),
it pushes on the plunger, closing the contact and
connecting the terminals (Fig. 497).
Testing
1. Disconnect the switch from the wiring harness.
2. Use a VOM, check first to ensure there is no
continuity between the terminals, plunger out.
3. With the plunger pushed in, there should continuity
between the terminals.
Purpose
Neutral Safety Switch
Used to ensure the motion control handles are in neutral
to start the unit. It is activated by moving the motion
control handles to the neutral position (handles outward).
Location
Remove the motion control cover to see the neutral
switches that are located on each of the motion control
assemblies (Fig. 496).
