| Hello All,
Engaging the deck via PTO handle stops the engine. Safety switch? What's so unsafe? Do you have any mentions before I begin removing parts? |

| Hi there rcbe, That has been disconnected for a few years now. PTO had worked last year. Maybe there is a bare wire hitting ground on seat switch wire feed? Will check that. Any other ideas? |
|
| the other safety switch usually tied into that function is the clutch// brake switch. one other thing - if that engine is a twin cylinder, may only be hitting on one cylinder and can't handle the heavy load of a deck start-up.... |
|
| Thanks rcbe for the additional info. I will reserve this task for winter. Single cylinder Kohler engine. When it shuts down, it is evident there is a kill in the ignition. ID Number: 2110K805, 27917 |

| There is also a safety switch for the PTO lever, on/under the lever. There is a tab that slides over the switch on the tail of the handle. |
