NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH
Every control system has a neutral safety switch
incorporated into it. This device prohibits the engine
from being started while the shift lever is in any
position other than the neutral position. If the engine
will not start, slight movement of the shift lever may
be necessary to locate the neutral position and
disengage the safety cutout switch. Should control
adjustments be necessary they must be done by
a authorized service technician.
