Check compression release lever (diesel
engine)
– Engine is equipped with compression release
lever. During engine starting, it can be actu-
ated for a short while to ease overcoming
engine resistance at top dead center.
Note:
To enable engine to start with hood open,
seat contact switch must be jumpered.
Jumper must again be removed once en-
gine has started.
Using Diesel fuel (diesel engine)
Exceptionally low outdoor temperatures may
cause diesel fuel to congeal. In this condition,
fuel is no longer supplied to the engine.
– To prevent this condition occurring, add vis-
cosity agents (winterized diesel fuel or dena-
tured alcohol) to the tank before cold weath-
er sets in.
– If the fuel congeals, replace fuel tank content
with winterized diesel fuel or add viscosity
agents.
– Continue by allowing the power sweeper to
warm up in a cold environment, with engine
idling.
