How to troubleshoot starting issues with my Jacobsen HR 5111?
- AAmy BrownAug 20, 2025
If your Jacobsen Lawn Mower's engine won't start, here are a few things to check: * Make sure the parking brake is engaged, the traction pedal is in neutral, and the PTO switch is off. Review the interlock system and start-up procedure. * Inspect the battery and its connections to ensure they are in good condition. A low or defective battery can prevent starting. * Ensure the fuel tank isn't empty or filled with dirty fuel. Also, verify that the fuel shut-off valve is open. Refill with fresh fuel, change the fuel filter, and bleed the fuel lines if necessary. * Check for a blown circuit breaker and reset it if needed.
