The interlock switches in the electrical system
prevent the engine from starting unless the gear shift
is in neutral and the deck engagement lever is
disengaged. Also, the engine will stop Ċ because of
a seat switch Ċ if the operator gets off the seat when
the deck engagement lever is engaged or the gear
shift is in gear. To ensure the interlock system is
operating correctly, check it before each use of the
rider.
Move the gear shift into neutral.
Move the deck engagement lever into ENGAGE.
Sit on the seat and turn the ignition key to START.
The engine should not crank; if it does, the interlock
system is malfunctioning and it must be repaired by
an Authorized TORO Service Dealer. If the engine
does not crank, proceed to step 3.
Move the deck engagement lever into
DISENGAGE. Sit on the seat, depress the brake and
clutch pedals, engage the parking brake and shift
into gear. Turn the ignition key to START. The engine
should not crank; if it does, the interlock system is
malfunctioning and must be repaired by an
Authorized TORO Service Dealer. If engine does not
crank, proceed to step 4.
Sit on the seat, move the gear shift into neutral,
the deck engagement lever into DISENGAGE and
ensure the parking brake is engaged. Turn the
ignition key to START. The engine should start and
continue to run. Then engage the deck engagement
lever and carefully raise off the seat: the engine
should stop. If the engine does not stop running,
shut off the engine and have the interlock system
repaired by an Authorized TORO Service Dealer. If
the engine shuts off when you raised off the seat, the
interlock system is functioning correctly and the rider
can be operated safely.
