INSTRUCTIONS
ROLL RELEASE:
To roll the machine without the
engine running, pressure within the hydraulic pumps
must be released, There is a hydraulic pressure relief
valve on the upper side of each pump that is used to
release the pressure. Use a wrench to rotate both relief
valves counter clockwise two full turns to open, After
rolling machine, both relief valves must be rotated
clockwise to close valves and tighten securely before
operating
machine, Machine will not move if relief
valves are open, See Figure 3.4.
WARNING
DO NOT disengage the hydro transmission and coast
down slopes.
DO NOT use Roll Release Control to
disengage
the hydro transmission
unless machine
motion can be controlled and engine is off.

STARTING
& STOPPING
- ENGINE,
BLADES,
PARKING BRAKE
This machine is equipped with dual hydrostatic
wheel
drive transmissions.
Each hydro pump is controlled by a
separate motion control lever. The left lever controls the
left wheel drive hydro pump and the right lever controls
the right wheel drive hydro pump. These levers control
the direction
of motion, Forward
& Reverse, and the
speed of motion. Move both levers forward to propel the
machine forward. Move both levers rearward to propel
the
machine
in reverse.
The
speed
of
motion
is
continuously
variable
from
neutral
(zero)
to
the
maximum.
Moving the levers farther from the neutral
position will cause the speed of motion to increase. To
turn, move the lever on the side to which you want to
turn slightly
rearward of the other lever. Move levers
slowly and carefully. DO NOT make sudden changes in
speed or direction. Always slow machine motion before
turning. To stop the motion of the machine, bring both
motion control levers to the neutral position.
Engage
parking brake.
