Operating Instructions

LOW TEMPERATURE STARTING

In case of cold starting, use an oil with a SAE viscosity
adequate to the ambient temperature.
Please refer to the engine use and maintenance
manual.
The machine is supplied with oil SAE 15W/40.
To start the engine from cold, proceed as follows:
• Set the forward/back speed lever to neutral
position.
• Turn the ignition switch to the glow plugs
preheating position holding it in this position for few
seconds. Step down on the gas pedal and start the
engine by turning the ignition switch. Release the
switch as soon as the engine fires.
• Let the engine run at idle for a few seconds
before putting a gear; this allows for a gradual warm
up of the engine oil and a better lubrication.
