      If the engine of your Husqvarna Lawn Mower won't turn over, make sure the brake pedal is depressed and the attachment clutch is disengaged. A weak or dead battery could also be the problem; recharge or replace it. Check for a blown fuse and replace it if necessary. Clean any corrosion from the battery terminals.

For faulty operator presence switch(es), contact an authorized service center/department.
