preheating is required, turn key to the Off position and
then to the On/Preheat position. Repeat this process
as required.
4. Run the engine at low idle speed until it warms up.
Stopping the Engine
1. Move all controls to Neutral, set the parking brake,
move the throttle to the low idle position and allow the
engine to reach low idle speed.
Important: Allow the engine to idle for 5
minutes before shutting it off after a full load
operation. Failure to do so may lead to trouble on
a turbo-charged engine.
2. Turn the key to the Off position and remove it from
the switch.
Pushing or Towing the
Machine
In an emergency, the machine can be moved by actuating the
bypass valve in the variable displacement hydraulic pump and

pushing or towing the machine.

Important: Do not push or tow the machine faster than
2-3 mph (3-4.8 km/h) because internal transmission
damage may occur. The bypass valve must be open
whenever the machine is pushed or towed.
1. The bypass valve is located on the left side of the
hydrostat (Figure 22). Rotate the bolt 1–1/2 turns to
open and allow oil to bypass internally. Because fluid
is bypassed, the machine can be moved slowly without
damaging the transmission.
1. Bypass valve
2. Close the bypass valve before starting the engine.
However, do not exceed 5-8 ft.-lb. (7-11 N·m) torque
to close the valve.
Important: Running the engine with the bypass
valve open will cause the transmission to overheat.
