LOW OIL WARNING LAMP
The vehicle is equipped with a low oil warning lamp (4), located on the instrument panel just above the steer-
ing column
(Figure 3) . If the warning lamp comes on, oil should be checked and added to the engine as nec-
essary before continuing to use the vehicle. The vehicle should never be driven when the low oil warning lamp
remains on. If the warning lamp goes on and off, the vehicle may be driven, but oil should be added at the first
opportunity. If the oil level is correct and the warning lamp stays on, have a trained technician check the vehi-
cle.
CAUT ION
• Failure to add oil immediately when the low oil warning lamp stays on may result in
permanent engine damage.
FUEL GAUGE/HOUR METER
The vehicle is equipped with a fuel gauge/hour meter (5), located on the instrument panel (Figure 3) . The fuel
gauge allows the operator to monitor the fuel level in the vehicle. The hour meter should be used by the
trained technician to track vehicle usage and determine when periodic service procedures are required.
See
Periodic Service Schedule on page 26.
ACCELERATOR PEDAL
The accelerator pedal is the pedal on the right, with the word GO molded into it (Figure 4) . The operation of
the accelerator pedal differs from that of an automobile:
• Pedal-start vehicle: When the key switch is in the ON position, and the Forward/Reverse handle or
switch is in either the FORWARD or REVERSE position, pressing the accelerator pedal will automati-
cally release the park brake and start the vehicle moving in the direction selected (forward or reverse).
When the accelerator is released, power will be cut off and the motor or engine will stop running.
• Key-start vehicle: The engine must first be running before shifting the Forward/Reverse handle and
pressing the accelerator pedal. As the accelerator pedal is pressed, speed will increase until full speed
is reached. When the accelerator is released, the engine will idle.
