4 Starting engine with the cab tilted
When you need to start the engine with the cab
tilted for inspection or servicing purposes, be sure
to observe the following safety precautions:
• Set the parking brake firmly, chock the wheels,
and take other necessary measures to prevent
the vehicle from moving.
• With a manual transmission vehicle, check that
the gear shift lever is in the neutral position.
With an automatic transmission vehicle other
than FM65F, check that the range selector lever
is in the “P” position.
With the FM65F automatic transmission vehicle,
check that the range selector lever is in the “N”
position.
• Place the starter switch in the “S” position to
start the engine.
Do not drive the vehicle immediately after starting
the engine. Allow the engine to warm up at least
until the needle moves in the water temperature
gauge.
The engine is warmed up with the speed being
automatically controlled according to the engine
coolant temperature. (The engine speed automati-
cally decreases as the coolant temperature rises.)
