3. Check the oil and coolant
levels. See your Engine
Operator's Manual for proper
readings.

8. Turn on the master key
switches located on the DC
distribution panel (see
Section 6 – Electrical
System , pg. 6.16). Listen for
alarms which indicate ignition power. Controls
require the station select button on the throttle/
shift control to be pressed for one (1) and a
half (1/2) seconds. This will silence the alarm
and enable the controls.
NOTE: Ignition switches on the control station must
be in the RUN position.
NOTE: Electric shift and throttle controls require
that the STATION SELECT button be pressed while
moving throttle control lever ahead of the detent for
neutral high idle operation. (Refer to original
Equipment Manual).
9. After ignition power is
verified, check the gear
shift lever(s) in the
NEUTRAL position and
the throttle lever(s) at
IDLE.
10. Push on the top of
the ignition switches
until the engines
start. Do not operate
starter for more than
10 seconds without
allowing starter to cool for two (2) minutes. This
will also allow the batteries to recover between
starting attempts. Once engine has started and
sufficient oil pressure is achieved, alarm buzzer
will stop.
Important: Check engine RPM on tachometer
as soon as engine starts. Do not allow RPM
to exceed 1,500. Move throttle lever down to
decrease RPM.
Note: Alarm will sound when:
• Engine oil pressure is too low.
• Engine temperature is too hot.
• Transmission oil is too low.
