S S SAFETY SYSTEM
MART WITCH
Your tractor is equipped with an operator presence sens ing
switch. If the parking brake has not been engaged before
the operator leaves the seat, the engine will shut off. To
continue mowing, the tractor will need to be restarted. See
"TO START ENGINE" in this section of the manual.
TO STOP MOWING
• While seated in operating position, depress brake pedal
and set parking brake.
After setting the parking brake, any attempt by the operator
to leave the seat will stop the mower blades. The engine
will continue to run for approximately five minutes before
shutting off. This allows an operator to momentarily leave
the seat to remove obstacles without having to restart the
tractor.
TO CONTINUE MOWING
• Return to seat.
• Place attachment clutch switch first in "DISENGAGED"
position and then in "ENGAGED" position.
NOTE: Any attempt to place attachment clutch switch in
the "ENGAGED" position without the operator first being
in the seat will immediately shut off engine.
