How can I adjust lawn mower switch sensitivity?

[shyan04]

PLEASE HELP! I am an adult, but only weigh in at 100 lbs. I mow our property of about 10 acres with a BadBoy Zero Turn mower, but because I do not weigh enough the cutoff switch causes the engine to sputter or cut off if I go over any bumps of which there are many on our property. I don't want my husband to disengage the cut-off completely but am hopeful that someone out there in lawn mower land has either invented or customized a weight adjustable cut-off switch that can be set for we light-weights of the world. Extra weights around my waist didn't help nor did eating more.

Sincerely starved?.

Ha! Might be a good case to bypass it. Or get a 100lb barbell weight and sit on it when you now

I have the same problem with my wife she goes to fast and hits every bump.

What I did was glue two penny's to the switch on the in the seat switch. If it is the type that the seat frame hits the switch just use a bungee cord to hold the seat down.
