In Case of Trouble
If trouble develops en route, move machine off the road at the first safe parking
place, and shut off the engine. Carefully note as many of the symptoms of the
trouble as possible, such as rough engine operation with loss of power and
overheating, or, loss of speed and transmission clutch pressure with normal
engine operation etc..
If the area in which the trouble occurs requires that the machine be left
unattended while the trouble is reported by phone, disconnect a battery cable
and apply security locks, if so equipped, before leaving the parked machine.
Make sure body is completely lowered and the parking brake is applied.
Report the following data as soon as possible.
1. Exact location.
2. Destination.
3. The nature of the trouble (with as many details as possible) and the time
and conditions under which it happened.
4. The telephone number at which the machine operator can be reached.
NOTICE
Do not attempt to restart or operate the machine unless instructed to
do so. An engine, pump, transmission or other component that devel-
ops a minor defect can be completely destroyed in just a few extra
minutes of unnecessary operation.
