Owner’s Manual and Service Guide
Read all of manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
Located on the seat support panel, this lever permits the
selection of either ‘F’ (forward) or ‘R’ (reverse) (Ref. Fig. 3
on page 2). Vehicle should be left in ‘F’ when unattended.
CHOKE
The choke is used to aid cold starting (Ref. Fig. 4 on page
2). See COLD STARTING section for operating instructions.
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge (if equipped) will either be located on the
dash panel (electric) (Ref. Fig. 2 on page 2) or directly on
the fuel tank (mechanical).
LOW OIL PRESSURE INDICATOR LIGHT
A low oil pressure indicator light is located on the dash panel
(Ref. Fig. 2 on page 2). The light illuminates when the oil
pressure is low. Check oil level. If oil level is between ADD
and FULL mark on dipstick, a mechanical problem exists
within the engine and the vehicle must not be driven.
Contact a local distributor or authorized branch.
To prevent engine damage, do not
operate engine until oil pressure is
corrected. Do not overfill engine. Too
much oil may cause smoking or allow oil to enter the air filter
enclosure.
If oil level is below ADD mark on dipstick, add oil to bring
level to FULL mark. Drive vehicle a short distance and
check oil pressure. If oil light does not come on, continue to
use vehicle.
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 2). To stop the vehicle 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
