Kubota brake safety switch

[Mike1955]

On a zg222 it looks really difficult to change this brake safety switch. Anybody have any tips? Thanks in advance

Yeah, I’ve tackled that on a ZG222, trick is to remove the seat and rear fender for better access, then use a stubby screwdriver to reach the tight mounting screws. Patience and good lighting make all the difference!

Thank you Kestrelrogers. I gave up. I left it where it was, cut the two wires and bought another limit switch. I mounted it where it would work from the thing that hit the other one. I works good. It has to be released or the mower will go dead.

This one cannot be defeated. Has to close to start the engine the open to continue running.

My JD tractor seats now has 3 wires & can’t be tricked like the old 2 wire safety switches

My KTM kickstand switch is the same 3 wire setup too.
