OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

98034360-9

STEP 1:

 Read operator's manual before operating machine. Check engine 

oil level. Oil level should be level with the bottom of the oil fi ller neck. (Refer 
to the engine’s operating manual included with machine.) We recommend 
that the oil be changed after the fi rst 50 hours of use, then once every 
200 hours. 

NOTE:

 Improper oil levels will cause low oil sensor to shut off 

engine.  

IMPORTANT! Do not run engine with high or low oil levels 

as this will cause engine damage.

STEP 2:

 Fill engine/burner fuel tank 

with No. 2 diesel fuel. Check engine 
and pump oil levels. Check engine 
radiator fl uid level. Install proper bat-
tery making sure that the red cable 
is attatched to the positive terminal. 
Use a 12V group 24 style battery.
