I know I shouldn't, but can the requirement to have my CK3520HST cab tractor in neutral to start it be bypassed? I really don't like having to put the tractor in neutral to start it, then having get the lever to go into gear. Having the brakes on is enough of a safety requirement for me.
Don't worry, I won't sue anyone that can tell me how to do this.

I haven't disabled the neutral or brake safety on my CK3510 variant. But I have done the seat. It was really easy and in plain view in the cab. I think you will have to be nimble enough to crawl under the tractor and dig around in the wiring from there. I'll get my moving blanket out and crawl under there tomorrow, I am curious myself, although I don't plan to eliminate the neutral safety right now. I grew up on old tractors with no safety anything and kinda laugh at the modern stuff.

I read that the CKxx20 series have a computer interphase for some electronics/safety stuff, even the CK2620. Maybe not so easy as a paper clip anymore? :mad:

Does pushing the clutch in allow it to start regardless of gear lever position? Is what I do with my older CK30HST…

A quick and light tap on the fwd/reverse pedal lets it slip right into gear.
