Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): 2011 sears tractor want cut in reverse, craftsman lawn tractors, yellow button


Question
How do I get my 2011 1500 craftsman 17.5 safety lawnmower model#28881 to cut in reverse. Is there a reverse safety bypass switch and if so where will it be located?

Some of the 2011 Craftsman lawn tractors do not cut in reverse. If you have an earlier model then the Reverse Operating System is engaged by either a yellow button or the ignition switch. Check your manual. the reason some mowers can't is for safety reasons, I can not tell you how to by pass any safety system for your equipment as it will put Allexperts in jeopardy and also we as service centers for lawn equipment are not allowed as we will lose our dealership and face fines or worse major law suit if any one gets injured.
