STARTING________________________________________________________________
IMPORTANT: Do not use starting assist fluids. Use of
such fluids in the air intake system may be potentially
explosive or cause a “Runaway” engine condition and
could result in serious engine damage.
1.
Make sure fuel shut off valve is completely open and
the tow valve (See Section 5.9) is closed.
2.
Sit in operator’s seat, make sure reel switch (T) is
OFF, parking brake (C) is engaged and traction
pedal (E and F) is in neutral.
3.
Move throttle lever between 1/8 to 1/2 throttle (W).
Turn ignition switch (V) to RUN. Parking brake light
(X) and engine oil light (P) should be lit.
4.
Turn ignition switch to GLOW PLUG position for
about 3 to 5 seconds, then turn key to START
position. Release as soon as engine starts. The
colder the temperature, the longer it will take to
energize plugs. Do not hold switch in GLOW PLUG
position for more than 5 seconds, or in the START
position for more than 15 seconds. Energizing glow
plugs is not necessary when starting a warm
engine. Once engine starts, engine oil light (P)
should go out.
5.
Allow the engine to become warm and properly
lubricated before operating at high RPM.
