Living in a suburban area, I wanted to see if anyone has installed or had experience with adding a kill switch to disable their tractor.
I will be parking my 2516 outside and wondered if I needed to go the extra step of disabling it.

Wondering if you could pull the starter relay?

Simple.
Cut the starter relay wire and insert a hidden switch into that line.
Maybe up under the dash where you can reach it.

On my tractor there is a switch to prevent starting in other than neutral and I simply unplug one of the leads from the switch.

even better .... wire it into a 2 way switch that goes the starter and to a horn instead .... flip it, and any attempt to start it now sounds the horn

disconnect one wire and add the switch in there (neutral start )
