Kevin, That litle quip about taking your brain to work is part of HawkFlier's signature, it is on all of his posts. He wasn't attacking you.

<font color=blue>...(negative earth to you)...</font color=blue> huh??

The only times I have heard this terminology used in Canada is by people who emigrated from the UK or were educated in the UK. The term in common useage is ground.

P.S. Kevin C.D. - you don't need to SHOUT. Turn the caps off, please.

The red button is a vent cap cover and the wires are an aux circuit for lights or an accessory. DO NOT connect the Red and Black wire, you will blow a fuse.
By the way, this aux circuit works great to power extra lighting on your BX.

Kevin - The "Brain" comment is in fact part of the signature on all my posts. It was not directed at you, it is a general truth. As for "Negative Earth", all of my Canadian friends speak and use "Kings" english, rather than the Americanized version, and most of the manuals for their stuff reflect this fact. I was not attacking you, I was trying to help. The emphasis was placed on things so you would not do something to damage an expensive piece of equipment by shorting out some or all of the electrical system. I am sorry if you found this offensive. My writing style tends to be lighthearted and I suppose some might not like that. I never yell, I just use caps to draw attention to important parts of a post. I would still suggest you not connect those wires togeather, but it's your tractor.

Kevin, he was not making fun, he always says that--yes--he does.
Also, the BX does not have a reverse lockout feature like a riding mower does, you can mow backwards or even upside down if you wish. Also, the BX mower blades do not disengage if you get out of the seat. This is true of most utility tractors but not true of lawnmowers.
The two wires are for an auxilary lighting circuit and the "red button" is a cap/plug, not a button at all.
good luck with your new BX. (d)
