Read all of manual to become familiar with vehicle. Pay attention to all NOTICES, CAUTIONS, WARNINGS and DANGERS.
ACCELERATOR PEDAL
Unintentional movement of the accelerator
pedal will release the park brake and may
cause the vehicle to move which could result
in severe injury or death.
With the key switch ‘ON’, depressing the accelerator
pedal starts the engine. When the pedal is released, the
engine will stop (Ref Fig. 5 on page 3). To stop the vehi-
cle more quickly, depress the service brake. If key
switch is ‘ON’ and park brake is set, depressing the
accelerator inadvertently will release the park brake and
will cause the vehicle to move which could cause
severe injury or death.
Depressing the accelerator pedal will release the park
brake if it is engaged. This is a feature to assure the
vehicle is not driven with the park brake engaged.
Depressing the accelerator pedal is
not
the preferred
method of releasing the park brake.
Depressing the
lower section of the brake pedal
is the pre-
ferred method of releasing the park brake to assure the lon-
gest service life of brake components.
COMBINATION SERVICE AND PARK BRAKE
PEDAL
The brake pedal incorporates a park brake feature (Ref
Fig. 5 on page 3). To engage, push down on the upper
section of the pedal until it locks in place. The park
brake will release when the service brake pedal is
depressed. Use the lower section of the brake pedal to
operate the service brake system.

the left side of the key/light switch (Ref Fig. 6 on page
3). It provides constant power for accessories equipped
with a 12 volt plug.
