COLD WEATHER STARTUP

1.Use the procedures described under "STARTUP" and then follow the procedure below.

2.Hydraulic fluids are thicker in cold weather. Therefore, it is recommended that the engine be run at low idle long enough to bring the fluid temperature up to a minimum of

50°F/10°C.

3.If the tools and tool hoses are cold, it is recommended to allow hydraulic fluid to circulate through the tool hoses until warm before using the tool.

SHUTDOWN

1.Ensure the flow selector switch in the OFF position

(center position).

2.Unless already at idle the power unit should return to idle. This may take a few seconds for the unit to react due to a built-in program delay.

3.Allow the engine to idle for approximately one minute and move the Ignition Switch to the OFF position.
