This switch spring is part of the safety system used in riding lawnmowers. This spring is located underneath the seat of all riding lawn mowers and lawn tractors. The spring is attached to two electrical contacts and is compressed when the rider is sitting on the seat. If the machine is in motion and the driver stands up or gets off the machine, the switch interrupts the power and stops the mower from moving. If the spring fails to work, it should be replaced in order to operate the mower safely. Over time and due to normal wear and tear, the spring may become warped and need to be replaced. Park the mower on a flat surface and remove the spark plug so that the lawnmower is not powered on. Look underneath the seat and locate the kill switch with a two-wire plug on one end and a round plunger button on top. Grip the wire plugs and pull them away from the switch spring. Install the new switch spring. Reattach the wires and reinstall the spark plugs. This switch spring is an authentic OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is a silver metal part that is designed for use in lawnmowers manufactured by MTD, Ryobi, Bolens, Yard-Man, Troy-Bilt, Husky, and Cub Cadet.
This part is discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available for purchase.
This replacement part is a ratchet fastener, and it is intended for use in different types of lawn equipment. This is a genuine replacement part made by Husqvarna. This ratchet fastener is found on most lawn mowers and is similar to a screw in that it helps keep parts of the appliance in place and secure.A new fastener might be needed if the current ones are damaged or missing. It is common for these types of fasteners to become stripped over time after years of normal wear and tear. The repair for this part should be fairly easy and will only require a screwdriver and possibly pliers if there is a fastener stuck. If there are parts of the lawn mower that are loose or falling off, a new fastener might be needed. This small part is sold individually and is a genuine OEM replacement part. Be sure to purchase the correct amount as some appliances require more than one.
