WARNING
Transmission control lever must be in neutral position when starting engine. NEVER engage transmission abruptly because this places unnecessary high loads on all drive line components.
WARNING
The parking brake must be used to hold the roller in the "stopped" condition. The transmission system will not hold the roller in a "stopped" condition.
To slow or stop roller, move the transmission control lever toward
NOTE the neutral position. If roller still cannot be slowed or stopped using the hydraulic braking sys- tem, use the parking brake to slow and then stop the roller.
