P. H O UR METER
The hour meter is located on the instrument panel.
(See Figures 3 and 12.) It indicates the actual hours
of engine operation, enabling the operator to deter¬
mine without guesswork when lubrication, change of
oil or periodic inspections are necessary. It also pro¬
vides a means of computing cost of specific jobs.
The hour meter operates whenever the engine is run¬
ning or the ignition key is in the "ON" position.

R. S PEED CONTROL LEVER
NOTE
Do not rest your foot on the single brake

The lever is used to select any speed from a standstill
"N" position to eight miles per hour in the forward
direction and four miles per hour in the reverse direc¬
tion.
Moving the speed control lever forward provides
increased forward speed, and moving the lever rear¬
ward provides the reverse speeds. (See Figure 3.)

the operator to return to a predetermined speed.
