tion I. Control lights (5) for charging of battery and (7) for engine
oil pressure must light up.

light up (temperature dependent).
– Kick the drive pedal down to 1/4 load.
– Once the control light (12) "preheating" has gone out turn the

starts to run by itself release the ignition key (returns to position
I). Do not start for longer than 25 seconds without interruption.
– If the engine does not start turn the ignition key back to position
"0" and repeat the starting procedure. Once the engine is run-
ning the above mentioned control lights must go out.
