ADJUSTMENTS
INTERLOCK SWITCH
Located on the front, below the floorboard and behind the clutch. The Interlock Switch is in the electrical circuit
between the starter solenoid and the starter on the ignition switch. When the clutch pedal is depressed, it
pushes the plunger on the interlock switch in, which creates a circuit. Thus allowing the engine to start. When
the clutch pedal is released the plunger on the interlock switch comes out, which breaks the circuit. To adjust,
loosen the two nuts holding the interlock switch and move the interlock switch towards or away from the clutch
pedal as needed.

tension as required. Retighten the bolt after the adjustments made.
