  Your Jacobsen Lawn Mower engine might not start due to several reasons: * The parking brake may be disengaged, the traction lever might not be in Neutral, or the reel lever(s) could be on. Check the interlock system and start-up procedure. * The battery could be low on charge or defective. Inspect the condition of the battery and its connections. * The fuel tank might be empty or contain dirty fuel, or the fuel shut-off valve could be closed. Refill with fresh fuel, change the fuel filter, bleed the fuel lines, and open the fuel shut-off valve. * A fuse may be blown. Replace the fuse.
