Test the Fuel Select Operation -
Gasoline/LPG Models
The ability to select and switch between
gasoline and LPG fuels as needed is essential to
safe machine operation. A fuel selection can be
made while the engine is running or not.
Switching malfunctions and/or the failure of the
engine to start and run properly in both fuel
modes and through all idle speeds can indicate
fuel system problems that could develop into a
hazardous situation.
Perform this test after checking
the gasoline and LPG fuel levels,
and warming the engine to normal
operating temperature.

and then move the engine idle select switch to
foot switch activated high idle (rabbit and foot

2 Start the engine from the platform controls and
allow it to run at low idle.
3 Press down the foot switch to allow the engine
to run at high idle.

operate smoothly in low and high idle.
