4.2 SAFETY INTERLOCK SYSTEM

The mower is equipped with a safety interlock system
that prevents the engine from starting unless the deck
drive is disengaged, the parking brake is engaged, the
steering control levers are in the neutral position and the
operator is in the seat. The interlock system shuts off
the engine if the operator leaves the seat with the steering
control levers not in the neutral position and/or the cutter
blades engaged and/or the parking brake not engaged.
WARNING:
Never operate the mower with the interlock system
disconnected or malfunctioning. Do not disengage
or bypass any switch; injury to yourself and others
or property damage could result.
