GENERAL INFORMATION AND ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Read all of SAFETY and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to Notices, Cautions, Warnings and Dangers.
TRANSPORTING VEHICLE
B
Towing
Do not ride or allow other people on
the vehicle being towed.
Do not try to tow the vehicle with ropes, chains or
any device other than a tow bar approved by the fac-
tory.
Do not tow a single vehicle at speeds in excess of
12 mph (19 kph).
Do not exceed 5 mph (8 kph) while towing multiple
vehicles.
Do not tow more than three vehicles at a time.
Do not tow the vehicle on highways.
Neutral Lock
To decrease the risk of the driven clutch turning the rear
wheels during service operations, a neutral lock is located
on the direction selector.
To operate: Turn the key switch to OFF and lift the seat.
Pull out and rotate the neutral lock pin handle so that the
pointed portion of the handle is to the side of the direction
selector cam. Move the direction selector towards the
area between F and R. During that motion, the pin will
snap into the hole in the direction selector mounting
bracket preventing any movement.
When in this position, the direction selector remains
locked in the neutral position. To unlock the direction
selector, pull the neutral lock pin handle out and rotate
until the pointed portion of the handle fits into the hole in
the direction selector cam.

duce a spark.
