Testing Neutral Switch

1. Operator on seat.

2. Lock park brake.

3. Move the gearshift lever to the “R” (reverse) position.

4. Turn the key switch to the start position.

5. Engine must not crank.

6. Repeat starting procedure with shift lever in each gear.

7. Engine must not crank.

8. Move the gearshift lever to the neutral position.
