6.7 Starting and Stopping the Engine
WARNING
Personal injury and machine damage hazard
Sudden movement of the engine and/or machine can cause death or serious
personal injury. Engaging the starter while the engine is still rotating will re-
sult in damage to the starter and flywheel.
► Check before starting the engine that any tools or shop rags used during
maintenance have been removed from the area.
WARNING
Personal injury hazard
Personal injury can occur if certain conditions are not met. Before starting
the engine, the operator must:
► Remain aware of bystanders.
► Ensure there is sufficient ventilation before operating the machine in en-
closed areas.
► Start the machine from the operator platform only.
► Review the starting and stopping procedures in this operator’s manual.
NOTICE
Long cranking cycles can damage the starter.
► Do not crank the starter for more than 15 seconds.
► Wait 30 seconds before trying to crank the starter again so the battery
can recover and the starter does not become overheated.
