3.3 VEHICLE CONTROLS
This section describes the operating controls of the vehicle. Figure 3.3.1 identifies many of these controls.
3.3.1 POWER KEYSWITCH
– Figure 3.3.1 –Arrow A
With the power keyswitch in “OFF” position, the Traction System is powered down. This conserves
battery energy by reducing the power draw when vehicle is not in use. Turning the power keyswitch to
OFF is highly recommended whenever vehicle is not in use. Always take the key out of the keyswitch
when leaving the vehicle
.
3.3.2 DIRECTION SELECTOR
– Figure 3.3.1 -
Arrow B
When the direction selector
is in the vertical position, the vehicle’s direction signal is turned OFF or in
neutral.
Turn direction selector to the right from vertical position to move the vehicle in forward direction. Turn
direction selector to the left from vertical position to move the vehicle in reverse direction. A warning
buzzer sounds when in reverse.
NOTICE:
Direction selector must be in the N or neutral position prior to turning on the ACE
plus
or Smart
drive
power keyswitch, or a reset of the direction selector to neutral will be required
before traction drive is enabled. See Section 5.12 CONTROLLER TROUBLESHOOTING.
