Safety Switch System

WARNING

It is important to check and maintain the safety switch system for safe operation of the machine.

There are three (3) safety interlock switches on the tractor; Seat Switch, FSC Neutral - Park Switch, and PTO Switch.

If any of the following conditions occur during start- ing or operating, a safety interlock switch may be malfunctioning. Contact your Walker dealer for trou- bleshooting and/or replacement.

With or without an operator in the seat, the engine starts with the Forward Speed Control (FSC) and/or the PTO engaged.

With or without an operator in the seat, with the Forward Speed Control (FSC) lever in Neutral-Park and the PTO clutch disengaged, the starter will not engage.

With an operator in the seat, the engine starts but dies soon after the Forward Speed Control (FSC) or PTO is engaged.

Without an operator in the seat, the engine starts and continues to run with the Forward Speed Control (FSC) and/or PTO engaged.

Forward Speed Control Friction Lock

The FSC friction lock is designed to hold the se- lected forward travel speed when the steering le- vers are moved and yet the friction is not too heavy to make moving the FSC control difficult (too much friction). The procedure for checking the FSC fric- tion lock is as follows:

1.With the engine off, place the FSC in the full FORWARD position and pull both steering le- vers back; the FSC lever should not move. If the FSC lever moves back when the steering levers are pulled back, the friction needs to be increased.

2.With the steering levers held back, move the FSC lever back from the FORWARD position. With a proper amount of friction adjusted, the FSC lever should move back with a slight amount of resistance (friction). If the FSC lever movement is “stiff”, the friction needs to be decreased.

If the FSC friction lock needs to be adjusted. Refer to ADJUSTMENTS for Step 7 - Forward Speed Control Friction Adjustment in this section.
