2.3 SWITCHES AND LEVERS ON CONTROL PANEL BOX
[1] STARTING SWITCH
This switch is used to start and stop the engine.
• OFF: The starting key can be inserted and removed at this position. When
the key is turned to this position, all the switches for the electric circuits are
turned off, and the engine stops.
• ON : Electricity flows to the charging circuit and lamp circuit.
• START: This is the position for starting the engine (the starting motor turns).
When the engine starts, release the key.
The key will return automatically to the ON position.
• PREHEAT: When starting the engine in low temperatures, set the key to this position. The engine intake air is heated to make
it easier to start the engine.
When the preheating indicator lamp (glow indicator) lights up and the preheating is completed, turn the starting key quickly to
the START position to start the engine.
After the engine is started, do not turn the key to the OFF position except when stopping the engine.
[2] ENGINE THROTTLE LEVER
NOTICE
•
If the engine is stopped before it has cooled down properly, there is danger that the service life of the engine
parts will be reduced. Never stop the engine suddenly except in cases of emergency.
•
If the engine has overheated, do not suddenly stop it. Run the engine at a midrange speed and gradually cool it
down before stopping it.
This lever is used to control the engine speed and output.
• Pulled back: Engine runs at high speed
• Pushed forward: Engine runs at low speed
[3] HI-LO SPEED RANGE SELECTOR SWITCH
• When traveling on slopes, always set the travel speed range to low speed.
If the machine is driven in the high speed range, it will cause the engine to overrun.
• When traveling with a load, always set the travel speed range to low speed.
If the machine is driven in the high speed range, it will cause the engine to overheat.
This switch is used to select the travel speed range.
When the switch is operated, the speed selection mechanism inside the travel
motor is actuated and the machine enters the high speed range or low speed
range.
In the high speed range and low speed range, if the engine speed and the
amount the travel lever is operated are the same, the travel speed changes.
• HIGH: The travel motor changes to the high speed range and the high speed
lamp on the instrument panel lights up.
• LOW: The travel motor changes to the low speed range and the high speed
