The
Safety Interlock System
Understanding the Safety Interlock
System
The safety interlock system is designed to prevent the
engine from starting unless:
• You are sitting on the seat
• The brake pedal is depressed
• The power take off (PTO) is “OFF”
The safety interlock system is designed to stop the
engine if you rise from the seat when the brake pedal
is released, the power take off (PTO) is “ON”.
Testing the Safety Interlock System
Test the safety interlock system before you use the
machine each time. If the safety system does not
operate as described below, have an Authorized
Service Dealer repair the safety system immediately.
1. Set the parking brake. Move the power take off
(PTO) to “ON”. Now turn the ignition key to
“START”; the engine should not crank.
2. Push the power take off (PTO) to “OFF” and
release the parking brake. Now turn the ignition
key to “START”; the engine should not crank.
3. Set the parking brake and move the power take
off (PTO) to “OFF”(On gear drive models the
speed selector lever must be in “N” neutral).
Now start the engine. While the engine is
running, release the parking brake and rise
slightly from the seat; the engine should stop.
