Controls

Traction Pedal
The traction pedal (Fig. 24) controls forward and reverse
operation. Depress the top of the pedal to move forward
and the bottom to move backward. Ground speed depends
on how far the pedal is depressed. For no load, maximum
ground speed, fully depress the pedal while the throttle is in
Fast.
To stop, reduce your foot pressure on the traction pedal and
allow it to return to the center position.
Important
The speed limiter screw must stop the
traction pedal before the pump reaches full stroke or
damage to the pump may occur.
Brake Pedals
Two foot pedals (Fig. 24) operate individual wheel brakes
for turning assistance, parking, and to aid in obtaining
better side hill traction. A latch connects the pedals for
parking brake operation and transport.
Pedal Locking Latch
The pedal locking latch (Fig. 24) connects the pedals
together to engage the parking brake.
Tilt Steering Lever
Press the lever (Fig. 24) down to tilt the steering wheel to
the desired position. Then release the lever to lock the
adjustment.
Parking Brake Latch
A knob on the left side of the console actuates the parking
brake lock (Fig. 24). To engage the parking brake, connect
the pedals with the locking latch, push down on both
pedals, and pull the parking brake latch out. To release the
parking brake, depress both pedals until the parking brake
latch retracts.
