Operation

Operation

Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position.

Push the lever forward and down to disengage the brake.

The unit must be tied down and brake engaged when transporting.

Controls

Motion Control Levers

The motion control levers located on each side of the console control the forward and reverse motion of the machine. The levers control the flow of hydraulic oil from the hydrostatic pump to the drive wheel motor for each side.

Moving the levers forward or backward turns the wheel on the same side forward or in reverse. Wheel speed is proportional to the amount the lever is moved.

Moving the levers outward from the center position into the T-slot locks them in the neutral position (Figure 6).

Choke Control

Located on right fuel tank.

The choke is used to aid in starting a cold engine. Moving the choke lever forward will put the choke in the “ON” position and moving the choke lever to the rear, to the detent, will put the choke in the “OFF” position. Do Not run a warm engine with choke in the “ON” position.

Throttle Control

Located on right fuel tank.

The throttle is used to control engine speed. Moving the throttle lever forward will increase engine speed and moving the throttle lever to the rear will decrease engine speed. Moving the throttle forward into the detent is full throttle.

Brake Lever

Located on left side of unit, just to the front of the console.

The brake lever engages a parking brake on the drive wheels.

Pull the lever up and rearward to engage the brake.

Ignition Switch

Located on right fuel tank.

The ignition switch is used to start and stop the engine. The switch has three positions “OFF”, “ON” and “START”. Insert key into switch and rotate clockwise to the “ON” position. Rotate clockwise to the next position to engage the starter (key must be held against spring pressure in this position).

Note: Brake must be engaged, motion control levers out (neutral lock position) and PTO switch “OFF” to start engine. (It is not necessary for the operator to be in the seat to start the engine.)

Hour Meter

Located on the right fuel tank.

The hour meter is connected to a pressure switch installed in the engine block and it records the number of hours that the engine has run. If the ignition switch is left on without engine running, hour meter will not run.

Note: This switch is not a low oil sensor and will not alert the operator if the engine oil is low.

Fuel Shut-Off Valve

The fuel shut-off valve is used to shut off the fuel when the machine will not be used for a few days, during transport to and from the jobsite, and when parked inside a building.

The valve is located in the fuel line behind and to the right of the seat.

Rotate the valve 1/4 turn clockwise to shut off fuel. Rotate the valve 1/4 turn counterclockwise to turn on fuel.

Fuel Gauge

Located on the left fuel tank.

The fuel gauge monitors the amount of fuel in both tanks. Fuel is used evenly from both tanks.
