STARTING/STOPPING THE
ENGINE
IMPORTANT: The fuel system must be bled if
any of the following situations have occurred.
A.
Initial start up of a new machine.
B.
The engine has ceased running due to lack of
fuel.
C.
Maintenance has been performed upon fuel sys-
tem components; i.e., filter replaced, separator
serviced, etc.
Refer to Bleeding The Fuel System.
1.
Ensure the parking brake is set, the PTO switch
is in OFF and the lift lever is in the TRANS-
PORT or FLOAT position (Fig. 9). Remove
your foot from the traction pedal and make sure
it is in neutral.
2.
Move the throttle control (Fig. 9) to the full
FAST position.
3.
When temperature is below 15°C (60° F), push
glow plug switch to ON (Fig. 9) and hold for
the suggested interval.
Note:
Do not exceed 1 minute of continuous
use or glow plug may burn out prematurely.
Note:
Refer to chart indicating approximate
preheat time suggested in various temperature
ranges.

4.
Turn the key in ignition switch to START posi-
tion (Fig. ). Release the key immediately when
the engine starts and allow it to return to RUN
position. Move the throttle control to the SLOW
position.
Note:
Do not run the starter motor more than
20 seconds at a time or premature starter failure
may result. If the engine fails to start after 20
seconds, turn the key to OFF, recheck the con-
trols and procedures, wait 10 additional seconds
and repeat the starter operation.
5.
When the engine is started for the first time, or
after the engine oil change or overhaul of the
engine, transmission or axle, operate the
machine in forward and reverse for one to two
minutes. Also operate the lift lever and PTO
lever to assure proper operation of all parts.
Turn the power steering wheel to the left and
right to check steering response. Then shut the
engine off and check fluid levels, check for oil
leaks, loose parts and any other noticeable mal-
functions.
6.
To stop the engine, move the throttle control
backward to SLOW, move the PTO switch to
OFF and turn the ignition key to OFF. Remove
the key from the switch to prevent accidental
starting.
BLEEDING THE FUEL SYSTEM
1.
Raise the hood over the engine.
2.
Loosen the air bleed screw on top of the fuel fil-
ter/water separator (Fig. 12).
3.
Turn the ignition key switch to RUN. The elec-
tric fuel pump will begin operation, thereby
forcing air out around air bleed screw. Leave the
key in the RUN position until a solid stream of
fuel flows out around screw. Tighten the screw
and turn the key to OFF.

Operation
Shut the engine off and wait for all moving
parts to stop before checking for oil leaks,
loose parts or other malfunctions.
