M. I NTERLOCKS
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 purpose of the safety interlock system is to
prevent the engine from cranking or starting unless
the gear shift lever (1415 Tractor) or speed control
lever (1420 Tractor) is in the neutral ("N") position, the
PTO switch is in the "OFF” position and the operator
is seated.
If the operator leaves the seat when the PTO is on, or
the unit is shifted into reverse when the PTO is on, the
PTO will automatically disengage. To re-engage the
PTO, shift into neutral ("N"), move PTO switch into the
"OFF" position, and then reactivate PTO while seated.
N. H YDROSTATIC DUMP VALVE LEVER (1420
Tractor)
The hydrostatic dump valve lever is located on the
frame cover.
The dump valve disconnects the transmission from
the pump so the unit can be pushed without running.
1. To engage the dump valve (making the tractor
free-wheeling), push the lever forward and hold in
this position. (Refer to Figure 10.)
2. To disengage the dump valve, release the lever.
(Refer to Figure 11.)
