Please avoid the continuous use of the engine switch for
more than 5 seconds
as the
starter motor consumes high electrical voltage.
If the machine does not start within 5 seconds, put the ignition back to the [STOP]
position, and repeat the same task again with a 10 second pause.
Please do not place the ignition to the [START] position during the engine rotation. It
may cause cell motor damage.
If the engine is already warm, place the throttle lever to the [HIGH] position.
There is
no need to place the choke in the [CLOSE] position.
After starting the engine, return the throttle lever to the [LOW] position and warm-up the
engine for approximately 5 minutes. Push back the choke lever to the [OPEN] position, and
warm-up the engine.
The brake pedal has to be [LOCKED (PARKING)] by the break stopper during warm-up.
An unlocked brake pedal poses a risk of injury due to sudden movement of the
machine.
This machine is equipped with an oil pressure
warning light. During the engine rotation the light will
turn red when the pressure of the engine oil is
dangerously reduced. If the light turns on while
driving, please take the following actions:
(1) Immediately park in a safe place, stop the engine
and check the engine oil level and condition
(viscosity and contamination).
(2) If the light turns on and the engine oil has not
decreased or is still on after oil is added, please
contact your dealer. There is a risk of engine
damage if used continuously.
Reasons why the Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light turns on:
The engine oil has been reduced for some reasons and it cannot maintain the proper
amount of hydraulic pressure
The viscosity of engine oil is reduced, it cannot maintain proper amount of hydraulic
pressure. (Please refer to “Oiled Parts Inspection, Replacement, and Lubrication” on
page 30
■How to Stop the Engine:
(1) Turn the throttle lever to the [LOW] position.
(2) Push the ignition to the [OFF] position to allow the engine to stop.
By warming up the machine first, oil is spread to each engine part, which helps to extend the
engine life.
