PTO Indicator light on dash

Remember that there are some differences in the Kioti and the Bobcat, and the largest differences are in the wiring harness/electrical. That and I think the lack of a draft control on the Bobcats.

And no seat switch.

As far as being able to start with the pto on, the answere is no since you must push the clutch down to start. The clutch then engages the pto when released.

That expalins why no PTO light on the CK. Bobcat doesn't monitor the clutch for start. Have to have treadel pedal in neutral, butt in seat, and PTO off. So they hooked the light up to see when it is on.

Very interesting. I thought it was a difference in paint and the seat but it seems there's more differences between Kioti and Bobcat after all. I didn't love having a clutch on my HST CK30, but I think a seat switch on any tractor would be a deal breaker. Shorting that circuit would be the first thing I did.
