Headlights
The tractor headlights are turned on whenever the ignition
switch is turned to either of the run positions.
Safety Interlock System
The safety interlock system is designed for safe operation
of the tractor. If this system should ever malfunction, do
not operate the tractor, immediately contact your Cub
Cadet dealer.
• The safety interlock system prevents the engine from
starting unless the parking brake is engaged and the
PTO switch is in the disengaged (OFF) position.
• The safety interlock system will automatically shut
off the engine if the operator leaves the seat before
engaging the parking brake.
• The safety interlock system will automatically shut off
the engine if the operator leaves the tractor's seat with
the PTO (Blade Engage) switch engaged, regardless of
whether the parking brake is engaged.
• With the ignition key in the NORMAL MOWING position,
the electric PTO clutch will automatically shut off if the
PTO switch is in the engaged (ON) position and the
drive pedal is depressed for Reverse travel.
WARNING: Tampering with or attempting
to bypass the Safety Interlock Switches in any
way will void your tractor's warranty. Do not
operate the tractor if the interlock system is
malfunctioning.
