Operation

Driving Forward or Backward
The throttle control regulates the engine speed as
measured in rpm (revolutions per minute). Place the
throttle control in the “FAST” position for best
performance.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
•
If you release the clutch pedal too quickly
when the ground speed selector is in gear,
you could suddenly put the machine in
motion.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
•
Sudden engagement of the machine’s drive
system could cause you to lose control.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
•
Always release the clutch pedal slowly
when starting the machine in motion
(forward or reverse).
To go forward or backward, depress the clutch and
brake pedals. Move the range selector to the desired
high–low location and select a forward or reverse
gear. Release the brake pedal. As you slowly release
the clutch pedal, the machine will begin to move.
Steer the machine with the steering wheel.
Note: For reverse motion, with the PTO
engaged, the operating–in–reverse
interlock must be deactivated by the
“key choice” switch located on the seat
bracket on the right hand side just
below the seat.
Selecting Ground Speeds
IMPORTANT: To avoid transmission
damage, always depress the clutch and brake
pedals before shifting gears or high–low
range.
Always start the machine and change gears by
depressing the clutch pedal (Fig. 13). In most
conditions, the machine is powerful enough to move
out in any speed. If it will not move out in a selected
speed (i.e., #5) due to a heavy load, use a lower speed
(i.e., #2).

Stopping the Machine
To stop the machine, depress the clutch and brake
pedals, disengage the power take off (PTO), and turn
the ignition key to “OFF” to stop the engine. Also
set the parking brake if you leave the machine
unattended; refer to Setting the Parking Brake,
page 10. Remember to remove the ignition and “key
choice” keys.
