Starting The Engine
1. Sit in the driver’s seat and fasten the seat belt.
2. Lock the parking brake
3. Place the transmission in neutral.
4. Pull the choke control all the way out.
5. Turn the ignition key to START and crank for 10 seconds maximum.
6. If engine does not start, release ignition switch and wait five sec-
onds; then turn the ignition switch for another five seconds.
Repeat this procedure until engine starts. NOTE: do not
press the accelerator pedal while starting the engine.
7. If the engine slows or stops, push the choke knob in half way.
8. Vary the engine RPM slightly with the throttle to aid in warm up
until engine idles smoothly. Then push the choke all the way in.
Starting A Warm Engine
Warm engines do not normally require the use of the choke. Overuse
of the choke can cause the spark plugs to become fouled.
1. Place the transmission in neutral and lock the parking brake.
2. Sit in the driver’s seat with the seat belt fastened.
3. Turn the ignition key to START.
4. If the engine has cooled and does not readily start, intermittent
use of the choke knob (pulled half way out) may be necessary.
5. If the engine is over-choked when warm, depress the throttle
pedal fully while cranking to aid in starting.
6. Release the throttle pedal immediately after the engine starts.
NOTE: If the engine does not start and all conditions are favorable,
change the spark plugs.
Driving The Vehicle
1. Check the surrounding area and determine your path of travel.
Select an area which is open and will give you room to famil-
iarize yourself with the operation and handling of the vehicle.

mission into low gear.
