Operator Presence:
A switch located under the
driver’s seat disables the power to the vehicle
when the driver leaves the seat. The driver must
be seated in the approved operator position for
the vehicle to operate.
Whenever the driver leaves the vehicle, the
driver should turn the key-switch “OFF”, place
the Direction Control switch in the center “OFF”
position.
Do not dismount the operator’s seat while
the vehicle is in motion. Getting off of the
seat will activate the Operator Presence
circuit, rapidly slowing the vehicle and
applying the park brake. The abrupt
slowing of the vehicle may result in severe
bodily injury.
WARNING
Emergency Stop Switch
Pushing on the Emergency Stop Switch knob
will immediately and abruptly stop the vehicle.

the left of the instrument panel.
The Emergency Stop Switch should only be
activated if the vehicle must be immediately
stopped. Do not use the switch when only
parking the vehicle.
Note: Operating the switch while in motion

premature failure of the parking brake.
Unless in an emergency, do not activate the Emergency Stop Switch while the vehicle is in
motion. This vehicle is equipped with an automatic electric parking brake. Activating the
Emergency Stop Switch will immediately apply the brake and abruptly stop the vehicle.
