Overview
Operating the ST-50 is intended
to be as safe and simple as pos-
sible. The controls section of this
manual covers the various con-
trols used to operate the
machine. Each operator should
take the necessary time to famil-
iarize him/herself with the con-
trols section of this manual prior
to attempting to operate the
machine.
In order to learn to properly
operate the machine, it is very
important that each operator
read and understand this manu-
al thoroughly. It is also very
important to take the necessary
time to become skilled in opera-
tion techniques in accordance
with the instructions in this sec-
tion. Do this in an open area that
is free of potential hazards and
bystanders. This will give the
operator space to practice with-
out worry of injuring people or
damaging property including
him/herself and the machine.
The ST-50 is designed to
accommodate the operator and
one passenger. The operator
and passenger must wear seat
belts at all times during opera-
tion. Never carry additional pas-
sengers on the cargo bed or in
the optional dump box.
Always use caution while operat-
ing the ST-50. Watch for and
avoid objects or obstacles that
may damage the machine or
cause injury. Avoid terrain that
appears unsafe or unstable.
Operating the ST-50
Once all of the pre-operation
checks have been performed.
Start the engine according to the
procedure on page 22. At this
point, the operator and passen-
ger (if present) are seated inside
the cab with seat belts fastened,
the engine is at operating tem-
perature and the desired operat-
ing RPM is set. Press the push
to operate switch to activate the
motion controls. The ST-50 is
now operational.
Forward Operation
Begin by slowly and smoothly
pressing the right side (forward
arrow) of the bi-directional speed
control. The machine will begin
moving forward. Adjust pedal
pressure as necessary to regu-
late machine speed. Familiarize
yourself with the steering control
by turning gradually both to the
right and left making sure to stay
clear of any obstacles. In this
way, familiarize yourself with the
ST-50’s handling and operating
characteristics. Do not operate
the ST-50 in high range until you
are thoroughly familiar with the
controls and are confident in
your ability to operate at slower
speeds.
Reverse Operation
To operate the machine in
reverse, press the left side (rear-
ward arrow) of the bi-directional
speed control pedal towards the
floor slowly and smoothly until
the desired operating speed has
been reached.
