STARTING AND STOPPING THE
ENGINE
1.
Be sure the parking brake is set and the PTO switch
is in the DISENGAGED position.
2.
Remove your foot from the traction pedal and make
sure the pedal is in the neutral position.
3.
Move the choke lever to ON when starting a cold

position.
4.
Insert the key into the ignition switch and turn it
clockwise to start the engine. Release the key when
the engine starts. Regulate the choke to keep the
engine running smoothly.
IMPORTANT, To prevent overheating the
starter motor, do not engage the starter longer
than 10 seconds. After 10 seconds of continuous
cranking, wait 60 seconds before engaging the
starter again.
5.
When starting the engine for the first time, or after
overhauling the engine, operate the machine in
forward and reverse for one to two minutes. Also
operate the lift lever and PTO switch to be sure all
parts operate correctly.
Turn the steering wheel to the left and right to
check steering response. Then shut off the engine
and check for oil leaks, loose parts and any other
noticeable malfunctions.
6.
To stop the engine, move the throttle downward to
the IDLE position, move the PTO switch to OFF
and turn the ignition key to OFF. Remove the key
from the switch to prevent accidental starting.
7.
Set the parking brake.
8.
Close the fuel valve before storing the machine.
