Clutch switch bad?

[MWB1564]

I just started my ck30 hst for the first time in a few weeks. It won't start unless I have the clutch pushed in at just the right position instead of just push it in all the way and start it. I assume there is some kind of switch to prevent you from starting it in gear. Is this a common problem, and what do I do about it? Thanks.

First you should locate the switch. Then a solution may be arrived at depending on the state of the switch.

As EGON said locate the switch, if my memory serves me correctly it is mounted so the peddle engages it when you push it down, and the mount may have bent just enough that it requires you to push the clutch off center to engage it.
