Does this key match Ryobi 18V 13 in cordless mower ? If not, do you have it?
Hi Olivera,
Thank you for your question. Before we can provide you with information on the start key, we will need the model number from your lawn mower. It is usually found on the deck near the left rear wheel, or on the deck behind the engine. We hope this helps!

Is it bad for my mower if I leave the fuse key inserted
For model number RY401010VNM
Hi Bill, thank you for your inquiry. We have researched and found that leaving the key inserted in the on position on a lawn mower can drain the battery. The constant current flow can cause the ignition coil to overheat and stop working. We hope this information helps!
