Driving Instructions

9.Release park brake.

10.Keeping brake engaged, place the Forward/Reverse handle in desired position (F = forward or R = reverse). Engine must be at idle before moving the shift handle. A buzzer will sound as a warning when the vehicle is in the REVERSE position.

11.Release brake pedal and slowly press accelerator pedal. As the accelerator pedal is pressed, speed will increase until full speed is reached. See following WARNING.

WARNING

•Operator must control vehicle speed when going downhill.

•Never shift vehicle out of the FORWARD position while going downhill. If you do, you will not be able to shift into the REVERSE position or back into the FORWARD position until stopped.

•Press the brake pedal as necessary and press the accelerator pedal partially when descending a hill. With the accelerator pedal partially pressed, the governor will cause the engine to assist the brakes in controlling downhill speed.

STOPPING THE VEHICLE

To stop the vehicle, release the accelerator pedal and press the brake pedal until the vehicle comes to a complete stop.

See following WARNING and CAUTION.

WARNING

•Driving through water may affect the brakes. After driving through water, check effectiveness of the brakes by gently pressing the brake pedal. If the vehicle does not slow down at the normal rate, continue to press the brake pedal until the brakes dry out and normal performance returns.

CAUTION

•When stopped on a hill, use the brake pedal to hold your position. Do not use the accelerator pedal to hold position.

PARKING AND LEAVING THE VEHICLE

1.After stopping vehicle, set hand brake until it locks. Make sure it is fully engaged. This will prevent the vehicle from rolling.

2.Turn the key switch to the OFF position and place the Forward/Reverse handle in the NEUTRAL position. Remove the key and turn the fuel shut-off valve to the closed (OFF) position when the vehicle is not in use (Figure 14, Page 25). See also Figure 24 on page 36.
