Purpose

Typically used to turn on the electric blade clutch and to

function as part of the safety interlock system.

How It Works

Contacts inside this DPDT switch electrically connect

various terminals. It is actually just two SPDT switches

tripped by a single lever. One of the SPDT switches is

connected to the electric PTO clutch. When in the off

position, this side of the switch is open. The other half

of the switch is used by the safety interlock system.

When the clutch is off, this side of the switch is closed.

This allows current to keep the kill relay energized so

that the mag is not grounded out.

Testing

1. Disconnect the switch from the wiring harness.

2. Verify the conditions on the diagram.
