Driving Instructions
Page 28
2006 Turf Vehicle Owner’s Manual
No one should drive the vehicle without first being instructed in the proper operation and use of the vehicle’s
controls. An experienced operator should accompany each first-time driver on a test drive before allowing
them to operate the vehicle alone.
To ensure safe operation of the vehicle, follow exactly and in order, all of the following procedures. Read and
understand all instructions prior to driving the vehicle.
STARTING THE VEHICLE
1. Make sure load is secure.
2. Make sure everyone is seated and holding onto hand holds or handrails. Driver should have both hands
on the steering wheel.
3. Make sure wheels are turned in desired direction and that nothing is obstructing vehicle’s path.
4. Start the vehicle:
4.1. Turn the key to the ON position.
4.2. Select direction by placing the Forward/Reverse handle or switch in the desired position (F = for-
ward or R = reverse). A buzzer will sound as a warning when the Forward/Reverse handle or switch
is in the REVERSE position.
4.3. Slowly press the accelerator pedal. The park brake will release automatically and the vehicle will
start to move. As the accelerator pedal is pressed, speed will increase until full speed is reached.
See following WARNING and NOTE.
ý
WARNING
• Operator must control vehicle speed when going downhill.
IQ System and IQ Plus vehicles only:
• Pedal down or pedal up motor braking may be used to help control speed when going
downhill; however, steep terrain or other conditions may require that pedal braking be used in
conjunction with motor braking.
Gasoline vehicles only:
• Do not shift the vehicle out of FORWARD while going downhill. If you do you will not be able to
shift into REVERSE or back into FORWARD until stopped.
• Press the brake pedal as necessary and partially press the accelerator when descending a
hill. With the accelerator pedal partially pressed, the governor will cause the engine to assist
the brakes in controlling downhill speed.
NOTE:
If the Forward/Reverse handle is shifted into the NEUTRAL position, power will be cut off and the
engine will stop running.
STOPPING THE VEHICLE
ý
WARNING
• Driving through water may affect the brakes. After driving through water, check effectiveness
of the brakes by gently pressing the brake pedal. If the vehicle does not slow down at the
normal rate, continue to press the brake pedal until the brakes dry out and normal
performance returns.
