    Ariens 42" riding mower headlight wiring- bad design

    New guy here, first time with a mower that has a drink holder. I got a 42" riding mower a couple of days ago that needs things (head gasket, who knows what else after that?) and so far, I haven't seen the headlight operating, so I looked at a schematic and it shows that it "has a special...

    JD 108 riding mower - turning the PTO on shuts the engine off

    After getting this unit running, I go to test the mower part of the tractor and when I engage the PTO switch (pull out and flip up), the mower goes to shut down.
