Safety Start Interlock System
The mower is equipped with a safety start interlock system
consisting of the brake switches, seat switch, and deck
clutch switch. Check mower safety start interlock system
daily, prior to operation. This system is an important
mower safety feature. It should be repaired immediately if
it malfunctions. The machine incorporates a separate seat
switch which will stop the mower engine when the
operator is unseated for any reason while the mower is
moving or the deck clutch is engaged. This is a safety
feature designed to prevent runaway or accidental
entanglement. To inspect the system:
1. The operator must be on the seat when testing the
seat switch.
2. Set both control levers in the park brake position.
3. Start the engine and allow it to warm up to operating
temperature.
4. With the deck clutch switch down and the control
levers in the park brake position, slowly raise off of the
seat. The engine should continue to run.

5. With the deck clutch switch up and/or the control
levers in the neutral position, slowly raise off of the
seat. The engine should stop within two seconds.
6. If the engine fails to stop when the deck clutch switch
is up or one or both of the control levers is in and the
operator is off the seat, check the function of the seat
switch. If the seat switch is not operating properly and
if the cause can not be determined, replace the seat
switch.
If the problem can not be located, contact your Land Pride
Dealer.

The safety interlock system should always function per steps 4
and 5. If it does not function properly, it should be corrected
immediately. Do not operate the mower without a properly
functioning seat safety switch.

The safety interlock system must not be disconnected or
bypassed.
NOTE: The operator's seat is equipped with a
separate safety switch. If for any reason the operator
Hour Meter
should become unseated when the neutral switches
are disengaged or the deck clutch switch is engaged
the engine will stop.

to protect the operator and others from accidental injury
due to unintentional engine starting. The engine starting
motor will not engage until:
A. Control levers are in the brake position.

The following steps are the correct procedures for starting
the engine. If difficulty is encountered, contact the Land
