persons or obstacles are in your way.
• The engine may be damaged if you are driving at a high
speed and then change abruptly from forward to reverse
driving or vice versa!

The drive direction switch is used to switch between forward and
reverse gear or vice versa. The machine may still roll, if you
change the driving direction.
