The engine governor is preset to control engine ground (vehicle) speeds to design limits.
Normal mode:
Hand throttle control lever in “DOWN” position.
Variable governor control in UP” position.
NOTICE
(Diesel Only) In the NORMAL MODE, the foot pedal
throttle retains full control of throttle lever position.
An internal governor adjusts the injector pump to
compensate for variations in power requirements
(maintains R.P.M. dictated by position of foot pedal
throttle).
WARNING
!
To prevent speeds greater than design limits,
NEVER alter the governor controls in any
manner to increase speed beyond the recom-
mended maximum R.P.M. Over--speeding
may result in engine failure and possible
injury to operator and/or bystanders.
The P.T.O. transmits power from the transmission to a
splined shaft at the rear of the vehicle for easy hook-up to
optional equipment.
