12.5 CHANGING DIRECTION
WARNING
‡ When changing direction between FORWARD and REVERSE,
check that the new direction of travel is safe. There is a blind
spot behind the machine, so be particularly careful when
changing direction to travel in reverse.
‡ When traveling at high speed, do not switch between FOR-
WARD and REVERSE or from FORWARD or REVERSE to
neutral, or apply the brake suddenly except in emergencies.
To ensure safety and relieve the shock, reduce speed before
switching between FORWARD and REVERSE.
Place directional lever 1 in the desired position.
12.6 TURNING
WARNING
‡ It is dangerous to turn the machine suddenly at high speed,
or to turn on steep hills.
‡ If the engine stops when the machine is traveling, the steer-
ing wheel becomes heavy, so do not stop the engine.
This is particularly dangerous on hills, so never stop the
engine when the machine is traveling.
If the engine stops, stop the machine immediately at a safe
place.
When traveling, use steering wheel 1 to turn the machine.
With this machine, the front frame is joined to the rear frame at
the center of the machine by the center pin. The front and rear
frames bend at this point, and the rear wheels follow in the same
track as the front wheels when turning.
Turn the steering wheel lightly to follow the machine as it turns.
When turning the steering wheel fully, do not turn it beyond the end
of the stroke.
