Starter solenoid

On Kohler Command engines, the starter solenoid is
part of the starter. See Figure 7.13.

When the proper safety conditions are met
(brake applied, PTO OFF), the orange wire with
white trace carries battery power to the engine
harness connector. At which point the battery
power is transferred to a blue wire that carries it
to the trigger terminal of the solenoid.

PTO Relay

The PTO relay is mounted in the fuse box and on trac-
tors with the manual deck lift, it will be the only one.
See Figure 7.14.

The PTO relay disengages the PTO clutch when it is

energized and latches on until the PTO switch is turned-off.
The list below details the function of the PTO relay.

OFF.

4 White wire

when the relay is not energized.
