• To assure optimum performance of the brake system,
burnish (break–in) the brakes before use. To burnish
brakes: Operate the vehicle at full speed for 3 minutes,
apply the brakes for 30 seconds while driving in 1st
gear. Repeat these steps 20 to 30 times. To verify the
brakes are completely burnished remove a rear tire and
inspect the brake drum for residue. The residue color
should be light grey to almost white color.
• Vary vehicle speeds during operation. Avoid excessive
idling. Avoid fast starts and quick stops.
• A break–in oil for the engine is not required. Original
engine oil is the same type specified for regular oil
changes.
• Refer to Maintenance section of Operator's Manual for
any special low hour checks.

shift lever to NEUTRAL position.
Note: Engine will not crank if the hydraulic lift lever is
locked in the forward position
2. Without depressing clutch pedal, rotate key clockwise
to start position.
