Electrical Switches
Activating the override switch while the throttle is open can cause
loss of control, resulting in severe injury or death. Do not activate
the override switch while the throttle is open.
WARNING
Override Switch (1) (Reverse Speed Limiter) - This
vehicle is equipped with a reverse speed limiter
system. To gain additional power while backing,
depress the override switch. NOTE: The override
switch also allows activation of Demand 4 Drive
(All Wheel Drive) in reverse, if the Demand 4 Drive switch is on.
Main Switch (2) - To start the engine, slide the stop switch to the
center “run” position and turn the main key switch clockwise past the
“on” position. Release the key when the engine starts. NOTE: Turn
off the main switch to end all electrical power to the vehicle, including
the cooling fan and lights.
Engine Stop Switch (3) - The engine will not start or run when the
switch is in its “off” position. Its purpose is to provide the operator
with a quick means of engine shutdown in case of an emergency. To
stop the engine, slide the stop switch either right or left to the “off”
position. NOTE: Turning off the engine stop switch will shut off all
electrical power to the vehicle, with the exception of the cooling fan on
some models. On those models, use the main switch to shut off the
power to the cooling fan.
