You've got 3-year unlimited hours commercial and/or 4-year 800hrs residential warranty! Why think twice? Pick up a phone and schedule service with your dealer.

The PTO is connected to the seat and the engine.
IF the mower thinks you are not in the drivers seat it shuts down so you can not shove your hand into the discharge chute to clean it out with the blades spinning.
And yes we get about 20 of these idiots reported down here annually.
Probably goes into hundreds in not thousands over there.

As previously mentioned, take it back.

I happen to have 5 of these mowers this last one i got the 725d t6 i got from a local dealer which dont have a real repair person fot the mowers they sell I have taken the mower to the dealer and had problems with starting they replaced the fuel solinoid .claimed it was fixed not then took it back they had it for a month said my injectors were bad I ended up paying for the injectors because they said my fuel was bad I got from Coop off road But all my other mower work just fine with the same fuel So Much for the warrenty .I don't Trust the dealer The next dealer is hour away and because I did not buy it from him there is a bit of friction there .
I happen to have some one sitting on the mower as I test the wiring the ele clutch works with a hot lead to it . so i have been looking into the wire loom up to fuse box the fuse was loose and worked of and on did what i can I still feel it is a ground wire in the harness.
