The
HYDRAULIC POWER SUPPLY
ENGINE THROTTLE
is located to the right
of the choke on the driver’s side of the semi-
trailer. The Engine Throttle controls the
speed at which the engine operates
(See
Figure 3-11).
It is a variable position control:
FULL OUT
In this position, the engine throttle is
fully open, letting it run at full speed.
FULL IN
In this position, the engine throttle is
closed, letting the engine run at a
slow idle.
3-16.5
To start pull the choke completely out
and set the throttle to the LOW position.
3-16.6
Turn the ignition key to the START po-
sition. The engine should crank and then
start.
CAUTION
DO NOT CRANK ENGINE FOR MORE
THAN 30 SECONDS. IF ENGINE DOES
NOT START, CONSULT THE OWNER’S
MANUAL SUPPLIED WITH THE EN-
GINE.
3-16.7
When the engine starts, release the
key. Gradually push the choke lever in until
the engine runs smoothly.
IMPORTANT
BLACK SMOKE FROM THE EXHAUST AND A
ROUGH RUNNING ENGINE USUALLY INDICATE
OVER-CHOKING.
3-16.8
To adjust the speed, turn the throttle
control in or out, as needed, until the engine
runs smoothly at a speed capable of with-
standing use of the hydraulic controls. The
hydraulic controls should now be functional.
3-16.9
Before shutting it off, allow the engine
to cool down by running at a slow idle for
one to two minutes. Then turn the ignition
switch to the off position.
3-16.10
Once the engine is cool, turn or push
the throttle and choke control completely in
and turn the key to the OFF position.
