My engine stops for no reason

[teg]

Thanks Teg. The PTO was supposed to be off but I will double check. What about the use of the backhoe? Do I have 2 seconds also to tilt the seat?

I don't really know since I have not used a backhoe with it...

Does the backhoe run off of hydraulic remotes at the back of the tractor OR is the backhoe powered from a pump attached to the PTO? If it runs off a set of hydraulic remotes, the seat doesn't come into play. If it has the PTO pump, then yes, you have to tilt the seat forward.

I have a chipper and it's tuff to remember the first dozen or so times that it happens. Let us know if the pto was "off" and/or the safety switch needed adjusting. :thumbsup:

Or if your HST pedal is not completely neutral then the tractor will think you are trying to drive while not on the seat and kill the engine.

My backhoe has no pump and the HST pedal may be source of a problem since the tractor is brand new, everything is still ｫstiffｻ. I will check the pedal again..

Thanks everyone, I solved the problem. The problem was the HST pedal switch. My dealer replaced it and now the tractor runs perfectly.
