STARTING THE ENGINE
Before starting the engine, carry out the pre-operational checks as follows.
1. Sit on the driver seat. Adjust the seat to most comfortable position.
2. Apply the footbrake.
3. Put the hydraulic lever in the neutral position.
4. Put the mean gear lever in neutral.
5. Insert the ignition key and turn it on.
6. Ensure that the warning lights are working
7. Always turn the ignition key to left for a moment and release it. The automatic heater will start working, which is indicated by
a light on the instrument panel. As the lamp goes off, turn the key to the start position to start the engine.
8. Ensure that all the warning lights are off with the engine running.
IMPORTANT
Never turn the key to the start position while the engine is running as this can cause serious damage to the
starter and engine flywheel.
Only engage the starter for a period of not more than 10 seconds.
If the engine does not start, rest the starter for about 20 seconds and try again for a maximum of 10 seconds.
If the engine does not start after repeated attempts, refer to the fault tracing guide.
