The Safety-Interlock System
CAUTION
If the safety-interlock switches are disconnected or
damaged, the machine could operate unexpectedly,
causing personal injury.
• Do not tamper with the interlock switches.
• Check the operation of the interlock switches
daily and replace any damaged switches before
operating the machine.
Understanding the Safety-Interlock
System
The safety-interlock system is designed to prevent the mower
blades from rotating unless you do 1 of the following:
•
Move either motion-control lever to the center, unlocked
position.
•
Pull the blade-control switch (PTO) to the O
N
position.
The safety-interlock system is designed to stop the mower
blades if you move or release both motion-control levers
into the N
EUTRAL
-
LOCK
position.
The hour meter has symbols to notify the user when each
interlock component is in the correct position. When the
component is in the correct position, a triangle lights up
in the corresponding square (
Figure 18 ).
