Restart Inhibit is initiated by the My Kubota user changing the state of the machine in the Restart Inhibit section of My Kubota. The signal is sent from the user’s mobile device to the Kubota WorkSmart system. Then the Kubota WorkSmart Telematics device next checks in, it receives the command to enable or disable the starting of the machine. Commands sent to the Kubota WorkSmart telematics device will only be received at a scheduled update time by the device. 

(*) Restart Inhibit is not available on all Kubota WorkSmart-supported models
