Neutral gear start bypass

[WinterDeere]

If it weren't for lawyers, no safety devices would be installed on anything.

The people everyone loves to hate... until they need one.

I have to deal with lawyers fairly frequently for both business and estate issues. Not all bad people. A good friend actually moved out of engineering, went and got his law degree in our late 30's or early 40's, and now works as a patent attorney.

Considering the number of people reporting the hst pedals sticking (including me), the neutral safety sounds like a good idea. If you're in low, the parking brake isn't going to help.

Disabling safety switches on your own equipment is something that a lot of people think isn't a big deal. Fast forward to when you are gone and a neighbor is asked to move the tractor out of the way so your grandkids can get to something behind it. The neighbor starts the tractor from the ground and it runs over your grandkids...
Not something I really want to consider, and I don't loan my tractors out unless I am there!

Is having your transmission in neutral for engine starting, really a big chore on this particular model?
Neutral start safety switches have to be one of the most basic, and reasonable, safeguards on modern machinery.

Yes, and I need one soon, an elder law attorney.

Thank you for all your reasons to not bypass this, I understand, agree and already know the implications. But my question was, is there a way to bypass this?

 

[Robin Veerman]

Maybe take the hint….figure it out yourself

 

[Kiowner]

Ok then, I get it. Sorry I asked, and again thanks for all the reasons not to.
The hunt continues on my own

And now that he has been warned on a open internet forum, if something does happen after he disables the safety switch, I can very easily see a good lawyer taking him to the cleaners.
I hope nothing happens! Oh wait, **** happens!
