SECTION 5: OPERATING YOUR LAWN TRACTOR
Safety Interlock Switches
This tractor is equipped with a safety interlock system
for the protection of the operator. If the interlock system
should ever malfunction, do not operate the tractor.
Contact an authorized service dealer.
•
The safety interlock system prevents the engine
from cranking or starting unless the parking brake is
engaged, and the PTO (Blade Engage) knob (or
lever) is in the disengaged (OFF) position.
•
The engine will automatically shut off if the operator
leaves the seat before engaging the parking brake.
•
The engine will automatically shut off if the operator
leaves the tractor’s seat with the PTO (Blade
Engage) lever in the engaged (ON) position,
regardless of whether the parking brake is
engaged.

The engine will automatically shut off if the operator
engages the PTO with the parking brake ON.
•
With the ignition key in the
NORMAL MOWING
position, the engine will automatically shut off if the
PTO (Blade Engage) lever is moved into the
engaged (ON) position with the shift lever in
