NOTE: For engine starting, the footswitch must be in the
released (up) position. Footswitch must be actuated
in order for controls to function.
1. Footswitch.
This feature makes it necessary to depress the foot-
switch to allow operation of the controls.
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY, DO NOT REMOVE, MODIFY OR DIS-
ABLE THE FOOTSWITCH BY BLOCKING OR ANY OTHER MEANS.
THE FOOTSWITCH MUST BE ADJUSTED SO THAT FUNCTIONS
WILL OPERATE WHEN THE PEDAL IS APPROXIMATELY AT ITS
CENTER OF TRAVEL. IF THE SWITCH OPERATES WITHIN LAST 1/
4" OF TRAVEL, TOP OR BOTTOM, IT SHOULD BE ADJUSTED.
2. Ignition/Emergency Stop.
An ON-OFF IGNITION/EMERGENCY STOP switch
and a separate START push button on the platform
console supply electrical power to the starter sole-
noid, when the ignition switch is pulled out to the
“IGNITION ON” position and the START button is
depressed.
