Q.SAFETY INTERLOCK SWITCHES

This tractor is equipped with a safety interlock system for the protection of the operator. If the interlock sys- tem should ever malfunction, do not operate the trac- tor. Contact your authorized Cub Cadet Dealer. The safety interlock system prevents the engine from cranking or starting unless the brake pedal is fully de- pressed, and the PTO switch is in the “OFF” position.

The safety interlock system will automatically shut off the engine if the operator leaves the seat before en- gaging the brake lock.

The safety interlock system will automatically shut off the engine if the operator leaves the seat with the PTO in the “RUN” position, regardless of whether the brake lock is engaged. The PTO switch must be moved to the “OFF” position to restart the engine.

The safety interlock system will automatically shut off the PTO if the reverse control pedal is depressed with the PTO in the “RUN” position. To re-engage the PTO, release the reverse control pedal, move the PTO switch to the “OFF” position, then again pull the switch to the “RUN” position.
