BX1500 engine stops

Jan H Lessard

My BX1500 used to stall once on a while when cutting grass. Finally found out (after an accident) that the design of the seat safety switch was the problem. The safety switch pressing plate has a round side and just by moving on the seat can make the switch to pop up beside the pressing plate shutting down the engine. Be carefull if it does happen downhill on a steep slope. Did anyone experienced the same problem?

Jan,I have the BX1500 and the only time I've experienced this is when I'm going down a steep slope in 4WD. I then just buckle myself in and that keeps me in the seat. I haven't had the problem with the switch slipping off the side of the actuator tab.
