3.
Once the PTO relay is energized by a ground path 
through one of the safety switches, it latches.  
See Figure 7.25.
3a.
The PTO clutch ground path that passes 
through the PTO relay is disconnected from the 
clutch.
3b.
The ground path formerly used by the clutch is 
shifted to provide a second ground path for the 
relay windings.
3c.
Once the relay windings have established the 
second ground path, the relay is latched on, 
even if the ground path that initially energized 
the relay is broken.
3d.
The second ground path loops through the B 
contacts inside the PTO switch. As long as the 
PTO switch is in the ON position, the second 
ground path will continue. Therefore, when the 
PTO is shut off by the seat switch or the reverse 
switch, it is necessary to get back in the seat or 
take the mower out or reverse and turn the PTO 
switch off and back on again to re-engage the 
PTO.
