Why won't the starter rotate when I turn the key switch on my Shibaura SG280E Lawn Mower?
- B
  Brian FrenchAug 30, 2025
  The starter may not rotate due to several reasons: * The safety switch might be engaged. Ensure the PTO lever is in the “OFF” position, your foot is off the traveling pedal, and you are pressing the brake pedal while turning the key. * The battery electrolyte level might be low, or the battery may be discharged. Replenish the battery electrolyte to the correct level and fully charge the battery. * The battery terminals may be loose or corroded. Clean and tighten the terminals, then apply grease to prevent rust. * A fuse may have blown. Replace the fuse with a new one. * The switch or starter motor may have failed. In this case, the unit needs repair or replacement at a service plant.
