Important: Do not engage the starter for more
than 10 seconds at a time. If the engine fails to

warms up.
6. Move the throttle lever to desired setting.
Important: If the engine is run at high speeds
when the hydraulic system is cold (i.e., when the
ambient air temperature is near freezing or lower),
hydraulic system damage could occur. When
starting the engine in cold conditions, allow the
engine to run in the middle throttle position for
2 to 5 minutes before moving the throttle to fast
(rabbit).
Note: If outdoor temperature is below freezing, store
the traction unit in a garage to keep it warmer and aid
in starting.
Stopping the Engine
1. Move the throttle lever 3/4 of the way to the F
position.
2. Lower the loader arms to the ground.
3. Turn the ignition key off.
