5.4.1. Heat motor start-up
By turning starting switch G on the platform control panel:

In “0” position the heat motor is off;

In “3 sec” position the plugs pre-heating takes place (only for Diesel motor);

In “Start” position the motor starts.
Do not insist on the starting position for longer than 3 seconds. In case of failed start, check the fuel level and
read the use and maintenance manual of the motor.
Do not try to start the motor if it is already running. This operation may cause the pinion of the starter to break
(under normal conditions the control system blocks this operation).
In the event of operational faults, check the motor warning lights and read the Use and Maintenance manual of
the motor.
NOTE: The heat motor can be started only if the dead-man pedal or dead-man button are not pressed. This
means that the motor can be started only if the platform green warning light ON is flashing.
5.4.2. Starting the 230V electric pump (OPTIONAL)
Diesel-powered models can be equipped, on
request, with a 230V electric pump.
To start the electric pump:

Insert plug X into the 230V socket of a power
cord connected to a mains socket complying
with all standards in force;

Set switch Y shown in figure to ON position;

To start the electric pump using the platform
controls, press green button E . The engine is
started when green warning light T is on..
When the electric pump is on, a battery charger
starts automatically to keep the battery charge
level.
NOTE The operations carried out with 230V
electric pump are slightly slower than those
with diesel motor.
