Neutral Switch - Plunger Type (Used
on 2000 and Later Hydrostatic
Models)
Purpose
Used to ensure the transmission is in neutral when
starting the unit. It is activated when the brake pedal is
depressed.

seat and fender area of the tractor on the right side of
the transaxle (Figure 242).

How it Works
This double pole plunger type switch has four terminals
(Figure 243). When the brake pedal is depressed, it
pulls an arm that pushes on the plunger of the switch,
closing the contacts, and connecting the four terminals.
