hydraulic pilot joystick con-
trols. The joysticks are used
to control machine speed
and direction as well as lift
arm and bucket functions.
4.3.1 Lift Arm Control

et, and to engage the float

and resulting lift arm action.
Note: To activate the float function, move the joystick fully forward in a quick
motion. The joystick will then be held in detent by the magnet attached to the joy-
stick base. Pull back quickly to disengage the float function.
4.3.2 Drive Control
The drive joystick controls the direction and speed of the machine. The illustration
above shows the relationship between joystick movement and resulting machine
motion.
4.4 Throttle
The throttle (hand lever) is located to the right of the operator’s right leg when
seated in the machine. The throttle controls engine rpm.
• Move the lever forward to increase engine RPM.
• Move the lever rearward to decrease engine RPM.
• Select a lower rpm for work that requires delicate operation of the machine.
• Select a higher rpm for faster travel speed or when more power or flow is
required for a task.
