7. After the glow plug indicator light goes out, turn
the key to the Start position. When the engine starts
release the key.
Important: Use starting cycles of no more than
15 seconds per minute to avoid overheating the
starter motor.
Note: Additional starting cycles may be required
when starting the engine for the first time after the
fuel system has been completely drained.
8. Leave the throttle midway between the Slow and
Fast positions until the engine and hydraulic system
warm up.
Shut the engine off and wait for all moving
parts to stop before checking for oil leaks, loose
parts, or other malfunctions.
Driving the Machine
The throttle control regulates the engine speed as
measured in rpm (revolutions per minute). Place
the throttle control in the Fast position for best
performance. Always operate in the Fast throttle
position when running powered attachments.
The machine can turn very rapidly. You may
lose control of it and cause personal injury or
damage to machine.
• Use caution when making turns.
• Slow the machine down before making
sharp turns.
1. Release the parking brake.
3. Run/glow pug
4. Start
Note: The engine will kill if the traction control
levers are moved out of the Neutral-Locked position
with the parking brake engaged.
2. Move the levers to the center, un-locked position.
3. Drive the machine as follows:
• To go straight forward, slowly push the motion
control levers forward (Figure 14).
• To go straight rearward, slowly pull the motion
control levers rearward (Figure 14).
• To turn, slow the machine by pulling back on
both levers and then push forward on the lever
on the opposite side from which you want to
turn (Figure 14).
• To stop, pull the motion control levers to the
neutral position.
Note: The farther you move the traction control
levers in either direction, the faster the machine will
move in that direction.
