Emergency Stop Switch with Lanyard for tractor

Posted by blue3992 on March 20, 2006 at 20:19:35 from (172.175.125.204):

Anyone ever install an emergency stop switch with a lanyard on their tractor? I’m thinking like what’s used on snowmobiles, jet skis, and some boats. It’s a kill switch with a little rope lanyard on it. You hook the lanyard to your wrist, so if you fall off, the layard pulls the switch, and the engine stops.

I have a Farmall M, so the seat is kind of up-high compared to some other tractors. Additionally, the seat is on a spring, so you can get kind of bounced around.

Anyway, I just got to thinking about how this might be a nice safety feature. I’m really carful what I do on the tractor, but if I ever were to fall off, I’d want the tractor to stop, especially if I’m towing a mower or something.

• This is kind of what I had in mind....
