1.3 - STARTING THE ENGINE WITH A BOOSTER BATTERY
If the engine has to be started with a booster battery (jumper cable...), proceed as follows :
• Never allow the vehicles to come into contact with each other.
• Connect the (+) terminal of the discharged battery to the (+) terminal of the booster battery.
• Connect the (-) terminal of the booster battery to the (-) terminal of the discharged battery.
• Follow the standard starting procedures.
• Remove the cables in reverse order once the machine has been started.
1.4 - NORMAL ENGINE OPERATION
Observe the gauges and the display screen frequently to ensure that all engine systems are
functioning properly.
Pay attention to unusual noises and vibrations. If a fault occurs, park the machine in a safe position
and perform the shut-down procedure (See Section D 1.1.6).
Report the fault to HAULOTTE AFTER-SALES.
Avoid prolonged idling. Turn the engine off when not in use.
1.5 - ENGINE SHUT-DOWN PROCEDURE
Park the machine in a safe location on a flat surface and away from any other equipment or traffic
lanes.
• Actuate the parking brake switch (P214).
• Shift the speed selector to neutral.
• Lower the forks or the attachment to the ground.
• Operate the engine at idling speed for 1 minute.
• Stop the engine: turn the ignition key to the left to position "0".
Never jump-start or charge a frozen battery as it could explode. Do not
produce sparks or flames or smoke near the battery. Lead acid batteries
generate explosive gases when charging. Wear safety glasses. Failure to
comply with these instructions could result in death or serious injury.
Do not overrev the engine.
