and adjust the telescoping feature to the desired position
and then the steering wheel tilt to the desired position.

General Information
• Start the vehicle in motion by utilizing the highest gear
speed in the transmission that will enable the engine to
easily pull the load without slipping the clutch. Accelerate
smoothly and evenly to engine rated speed.
Rapid
acceleration will result in high fuel consumption.
• When approaching a hill, depress accelerator smoothly to
start the upgrade at full power, then shift down as needed
to maintain vehicle speed.
• Prevent over-speeding of the engine when going down
long and steep grades.
The governor has no control
over engine speed when it is being pushed by the loaded
vehicle.
Operate in a gear that will permit an engine
speed below the Maximum Governed Speed or High-Idle
RPM (no load).
