move in neutral. Make adjustments for neutral positioning
only.

must be running and the drive wheels must be able
to turn. Contact with moving parts or hot surfaces
may cause personal injury.
Keep hands, feet, other body parts, and clothing
away from rotating parts and hot surfaces.

off, remove the key, and set the parking brake.
2. Raise all 3 wheels of the machine up off the floor, and
