carriage. Speed is proportional to lever actuation.
Push lever forward to tilt down or pull lever to rear to tilt
up.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gage: This gage dis-
plays engine coolant temperature. Normal operating
temperature is 180-200°F.(82-93°C.).
Engine Oil Pressure Gage: This gage displays engine
oil pressure. Normal operating pressure is 35-50 psi
(241-345kPa).
Forward/Reverse Lever: This lever engages forward
or reverse travel. Push lever fully forward for forward
travel; pull lever fully to rear for reverse travel or more
lever to centered position for neutral.
Fuel Gage: This gage displays level of fuel in fuel tank.

machine operation at low speeds and high engine rpm.
Steering Wheel:The steering wheel controls the angle
of rear axle wheels. Turning the steering wheel to the
Forward/Reverse Lever: This lever engages forward
right causes a right turn by angling rear wheels to left.
A left turn is caused by angling rear wheels to right.
