John Deere’s Bypass Start Safe
ty Program involves most John
Deere tractors built since 1960.
The program calls for John Deere
dealers to install a safety-start kit
(starter solenoid cover and bypass
start warning decal) on every
qualifying tractor in their service
areas and inspect the tractor’s
starting system. There is no charge
to the customer for the kit. instal

Those dealers who completed
100% of their assignments by a
certain date were recognized by
John Deere for their efforts.
“There still may be some trac
tors or owners we have been unab
le to identify,” said Brad Finch. “If
this is the case, we urge these indi
viduals to call the dealership
immediately so we can schedule a
technician to install a free safety
start kit and conduct a free inspec
tion of the starting system.” The
telephone number to contact Allen
