If equipped with the optional tilting and telescoping steering
column, the steering wheel can be adjusted as follows:
• Grasp the steering wheel with your right hand and unlock the
release handle with your left hand by pushing forward on the
release handle.
• Using both hands, grab the sides of the steering wheel and
adjust the telescoping feature to the desired position and
then the steering wheel tilt to the desired position.

with your right hand and pull the release handle backward
towards you, to the locked position, with your left hand.
• Make certain the steering wheel is in the proper position and
the column is locked.
General
• Start the vehicle in motion by utilizing the highest gear speed
in the transmission that will enable the engine to easily pull
the load without slipping the clutch. Accelerate smoothly and
evenly to engine-rated speed. Rapid acceleration will result
in high fuel consumption.
• When approaching a hill, depress accelerator smoothly to
start the upgrade at full power. Then Shift down, as needed
to, maintain vehicle speed.
• Prevent overspeeding of the engine when going down
long and steep grades. The governor has no control over
engine speed when it is being pushed by the loaded vehicle.
Operate in a gear that will permit an engine speed below
the maximum governed speed or high-idle RPM (no load).
