The following are the conditions when the indicator
lights will be “ON”. At other times the lights should
be off.
Operating–in–Reverse
The Operating–in–Reverse light will illuminate
whenever the “key choice” switch is used to
deactivate the operating–in–reverse interlock. It is a
reminder that the interlock system is deactivated.
The light goes out whenever the power take off (PTO)
is disengaged or the engine is shut off.
PTO (Power Take Off)
The PTO (power take off) light will be “ON” when
the key is in the “RUN” or “LIGHTS” positions and
the PTO (power take off) is engaged “ON”. When
this light is “ON” it is a reminder; the starter will not
crank and turn off the PTO before getting off.
Hourmeter
The hourmeter records the number of hours the
engine has operated. It is turned on when the ignition
switch is in the “RUN” or “LIGHTS” positions. Use
the times for scheduling regular maintenance.
Driving
Forward or Backward
The throttle control regulates the engine speed as
measured in rpm (revolutions per minute). Place the
throttle control in the “FAST” position for best
performance.
To go forward or backward, release the parking brake:
refer to Releasing the Parking Brake, page 12. Place
your foot on the traction control pedal and slowly
press on the top of the traction control pedal to move
forward or on the bottom of the traction control pedal
to move backward (Fig. 10). The farther you move
the traction control pedal in either direction, the faster
the machine will move in that direction.
Note: For reverse motion, with the PTO
engaged, the operating–in–reverse
interlock must be deactivated by the
“key choice” switch located on the seat
bracket on the right hand side just
below the seat.
To slow down, release the pressure on the traction
control pedal.
IMPORTANT: To avoid transmission
damage, always release the parking brake
before moving the traction control pedal.
