7. Starting and Stopping (Including PTO Engagement and Control Unit)
7.1 Disengaging the PTO
Pull back on the PTO shift rod to disengage the PTO in rear mount mode.
Push down the PTO shift rod to disengage the PTO in front mount mode.
7.2 Shift into neutral
On the gear speed selector, all positions marked "n" are neutral.
7.3 Latch both clutch and stop switch levers for engine starting
The clutch is the black lever and the
stop switch is the red lever on the left
handlebar. The red lever has to be
held depressed during operation or it
will shut off the engine. For starting,
squeeze both levers against the
handlebar with one hand and prop
them in this position by setting the
wire spring latch (see drawing).
Note
Squeezing the clutch lever dislodges the wire spring latch, letting you take over control of
the clutch. If you let go of the handlebar, the engine will be switched to a stop.
7.4 Cranking to start
Turn the ignition key to START to crank the engine. Key will return to the RUN position when
you let go.
ENGINE WARM-UP PERIOD: let the engine warm up for a few moments without any load (in
neutral N and PTO disengaged) to give the oil time to reach the parts of the engine in need
of lubrication.
7.5 Stopping
Any time you let go of the left handlebar, the red stop
lever on top will activate the ignition stop switch to
stop the engine. Always remember to turn off the
switch to prevent current drain when the unit is not in
use.
7.6 Differential
The differential drive directs the driving to one wheel,
allowing the other to free-wheel. Differential drive
facilitates making tight turns with the unit.
