HAND CONTROLS)                                                        A
The seat bar restraint system has a pivoting seat bar
(Item 1) [A] with arm rests and has spring loaded
interlocks for the lift and tilt control functions.
                                                                                                                 1
The operator controls the use of the seat bar. The seat
bar in the down position helps to keep the operator in the
seat.
The interlocks require the operator to lower the seat bar
in order to operate the hand controls.
When the seat bar is up, the lift and tilt control functions
are locked when returned to the NEUTRAL POSITION.
                                                                                                                       P–03563

                                                                      Hand Control
  • Stop the engine.                                                    Linkage                               Interlock
  • Engage the parking brake.                                                         3
  • Raise seat bar, move hand controls until both                                                              Shield

locking and unlocking functions of the hand controls.
                                                                                                          Seat Bar
The interlocks (Item 1) [B] require the operator to lower
the seat bar (Item 2) [B] which allows the operator to
move the hand controls to control the lift and tilt functions.
When the seat bar is lowered, it pushes the interlock (Item
1) [B] down on both sides, releasing the hand control
linkages (Item 3) [B] from the interlocks.
The hand controls will pivot in both directions when the
interlock is down.                                                        Interlock
                                                                           Shield
When the seat bar is raised, spring forces raise the                                                      Interlock
interlocks [C].
The hand controls will not function when the interlock is
up.

  area, fresh air must be added to avoid
  concentration of exhaust fumes. If the engine
  is stationary, vent the exhaust outside.
  Exhaust fumes contain odorless, invisible
  gases which can kill without warning [A].

Normal Starting (Without BOSS®)
Adjust the seat position for comfortable operation of the
foot pedals or hand controls and steering levers.
Fasten the seat belt snugly and adjust it so the buckle is
centered between your hips.
Lower the seat bar [B].
Put the foot pedals or hand controls and steering levers
in NEUTRAL POSITION (center) (Item 1) [C].                                                     P–07639
Set the engine speed control to the 1/2 SPEED position
(Item 2) [C].                                                           NEUTRAL POSITION

Turn the key switch to the ON POSITION. The engine and
transmission warning lights will be ON when the key
switch is on and the engine is stopped (Item 3) [C].
Turn the key switch to START POSITION (Item 4) [C] and
                                                                  1
release it when the engine starts. (See Cold                                 1/2 SPEED

NOTE: Advanced Hand Controls Only: The hand
      controls must be in neutral before starting
      the engine. If the hand controls are not in
      neutral, the engine will start but lift and tilt            2

Engine oil is used to provide both engine lubrication and
cooling. No anti–freeze/water mixture is used for engine
cooling.                                                          Wear safety glasses to prevent eye injury when
