Vehicle Operation
NOTE: The high range is for normal riding with light loads. The low
range is for carrying heavy loads or trailer towing. Compared to
HIGH range, the LOW range position provides slower speed and
greater torque to the wheels.
3. To engage reverse gear from neutral, move the shift lever to the left; then
rearward into the Reverse position.
Always come to a complete stop before attempting to shift from
one range to the other or into reverse. Always shift on level ground.
Do not start the engine or operate this vehicle with the V-belt cover
removed. Severe injury could result.

Driving

Once the engine`s warm, the vehicle is ready to be driven.
1. With the engine idling, press the foot brake pedal to apply the brake; then
select the appropriate operating range and/or direction with the shift lever.
2. Release the parking brake; then release the foot brake pedal and press the
accelerator to slowly add power to start moving.
3. To slow down or stop, release the accelerator and press the foot brake pedal
as necessary to slow or stop the vehicle.

Braking/Stopping

Always allow plenty of room and time to stop smoothly. Sometimes quick stops
are inevitable, so always be prepared. Whether you`re stopping slowly or stop-
ping quickly, do this:
1. Release the accelerator; then press the foot brake pedal to apply the brake.
2. If the wheels lock, release them for a second; then apply them again. On sur-
faces such as ice, mud, or loose gravel, pump the brake pedal rapidly.
