If you have not figured this one out yet, the problem will be one of the safety switches that are not closed. There are about four and the main problem I had was with the grass chute attachment, I would have to kick it with my foot when I would not start and then it started right up. A real overkill on the kill switches.

Safety switches are overkill on this model - especially the grass chute switch gets jarred loose.
