Beware the safety switch

MESSMAKER · Apr 15, 2010

Just a heads up.This has happened to me twice. It has brought things to a screaming halt. If you are doing loader work in high weeds, you can get debris in the safety switch located under the frame below the seat. I have twice had a leaf the size of a fingernail keep the tractor from restarting. It gets wedged between the contact points of the switch. Look here first if your tractor won't turn over.

Thanks for that. Any pictures?
