Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position, push the
glow plug switch for 10 seconds. The light will turn on.
Release the switch after 10 seconds. The light will turn
off. Turn the key to the start position and the glow plug
indicator light will come back on. When the engine starts,
release the key.
Important: Use starting cycles of no more than 30
seconds per minute to avoid overheating the starter
motor.
If the engine does not start immediately, move the
throttle control to fast and turn the key to the start
position.
Note: Additional starting cycles may be required
when starting the engine for the fi rst time
after the fuel system has been completely
without fuel.
Current fl ows from the ignition switch to the PTO switch.
It moves on to the brake switch, the two neutral motion
control switches, the fuel solenoid and fi nally to the
engine starter. Current fl ow branches from the two
neutral motion control switches and goes to the start
relay and the glow plug relay, which activate the starter
solenoid and glow plugs.
