THROTTLE CONTROL
The throttle control is located on the left side console. Gas and LP equipment have a throttle switch. Diesel versions have a lever.
To operate the diesel: For full throttle, grasp the lever and push up and right to the locking notch. To reduce to idle, grasp the lever
and push it up and to the left (away from the locking notch). Let the lever lower until it rests at the bottom of the slot. “Load” (brooms
and/or brushes and/or dust control operating) and “No Load” (brooms, brushes & dust control off) RPMs are the same for gas and LP
equipment; The will be a slight drop between “Load” and “No Load” RPMs with diesels. Always return the throttle switch/lever to the
idle position before turning off the key to stop the engine.
CHECK ENGINE LIGHT (MIL) - Gas, LP Only
The check engine light (MIL) is located on the left side console. If the light comes on, it indicates a problem with the engine.
Go to the GM Engine Service Manual, Section 7, for directions on how to diagnose the problem.
