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 has three positions, each position made in 1/4 turn increments.

Valve handle down is the “OFF” position. Rotate valve handle 1/4 turn right (from “Off” position) for fuel flow from the right tank. Rotate valve handle 1/4 turn left (from “Off” position) for fuel flow from the left tank.

4.1.10Drive Wheel Release Valves: The drive wheel release valve levers are 1/4-

20x2 screws covered with a black vinyl grip located on the right front corner of the hydrostatic pumps. Drive wheel release valves are used to release the hydrostatic drive system to allow the machine to be pushed without the engine running. Tilt seat up to gain access to pumps.

Loosen both valves one turn to release drive system.

Tighten to reset system. DO NOT overtighten. DO NOT tow machine.

4.2PRE-START

4.2.1Fill fuel tanks. For best results use only clean, fresh regular grade unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Regular grade leaded gasoline may also be used; however, combustion chamber and cylinder head will require more frequent service. See Engine Owner's Manual. DO NOT add oil to gasoline.

Never fill the fuel tank so that the fuel level rises above a level that is 1/2” below the bottom of the filler neck to allow for fuel expansion and prevent fuel spillage.

DANGER

POTENTIAL HAZARD

In certain conditions gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

A static charge can ignite gasoline vapors. A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you, others, and cause property damage.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

Purchase and store gasoline only in an approved container.

Always place gasoline containers on the ground away from your vehicle before filling.

Do not fill gasoline containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed because interior carpets or plastic truck bed liners may insulate the container and slow the loss of any static charge.

When practical, remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel the equipment with its wheels on the ground.

If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment on a truck or trailer from a portable container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.

If a gasoline dispenser nozzle must be used, keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening at all times until fueling is complete.
