STARTING
Set the forward/reverse lever (24) in neutral. The
engine cannot be started if the lever is in any other
position.
Set the amplitude selector (27) to the 0 mode.
Press the button on the revs control (32) and increase
to ¼ throttle. Check that the starter switch (9) is at
position I.
Press the starter contact (8). Release the contact as
soon as the engine fires.
Do not run the starter motor too long. If the
engine does not start immediately, wait a
minute or so before making a new attempt.
Run the engine warm at about 1000 r/min for 5 to 10
minutes depending on the ambient temperature.
Check that the tachometer/hourmeter (19) gives a
reading. Check while warming up that the voltmeter
(13) indicates 13–14 volt, and that the oil pressure
warning lamp (12) is out. Check that the engine
temperature gauge (16) gives a reading towards the
end of the warming-up period.
Warning lamp (10).
When starting up and driving a cold roller
(cold hydraulic fluid) the braking distance
will be longer than normal until the machi-
ne reaches normal working temperature.
Ensure that ventilation (extraction) is
adequate if the engine is run indoors.
(Risk of carbon monoxide poisoning).
