Driving Forward or Backward
The throttle control regulates the engine speed as
measured in rpm (revolutions per minute). Place the
throttle control in the fast position for best performance.
If you release the clutch pedal too quickly when
the ground speed selector is in gear, you could
suddenly put the machine in motion.
• Always release the clutch pedal slowly when
starting the machine in motion (forward or
reverse).
Caution
To go forward or backward, depress the clutch and brake
pedals. Move the range selector to the desired high–low
location and select a forward or reverse gear. Release the
brake pedal. As you slowly release the clutch pedal, the
machine will begin to move. Steer the machine with the
steering wheel.
Note: For reverse motion, with the PTO engaged, the
operating–in–reverse interlock must be deactivated by the
Keychoice switch located on the seat bracket on the right
hand side just below the seat.
Selecting the Ground Speeds
Important To avoid transmission damage, always
depress the clutch and brake pedals before shifting gears
or high–low range.
Always start the machine and change gears by depressing
the clutch pedal (Fig. 16). In most conditions, the machine
is powerful enough to move out in any speed. If it will not
move out in a selected speed (i.e., #5) due to a heavy load,
use a lower speed (i.e., #2).
