out to "ON", the Electric Clutch functions to Brake
and STOP the Blades from rotating when the PTO

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
20 AMP FUSE PROTECTION
A 20 Amp, Automotive Type Fuse is used to protect
the Electrical Circuit. See Figure 58 for the location
of this Fuse.
If the Engine fails to crank and the Battery is fully
charged, a blown Fuse could be the cause.
Pull the Fuse out of the holder and check to see if the
metal Fuse Wire is broken. If the Wire is intact, re-
install the Fuse in the holder and check for some other
cause.
If the Fuse is blown, install a new 20 Amp Fuse,
(SNAPPER Part Number 2-3653) in the holder.
