plugs heat the precombustion chambers during

this time, and the engine will start.

2. HST foot pedals are released.

3. PTO lever is in the“OFF”position.

4. Master brake pedal is depressed or parking

brake lever is locked.

For safe operation, always check to make

certain the range shift lever and lift control lever

are in neutral before attempting to start engine.

Refer to page 2-12 for complete starting

instructions.

IMPORTANT: The key start switch must remain

in the “ON” position while operating the engine.

The warning lights and battery charging system

will not function with the switch in the “OFF”

position.
