START BUTTON (Gas/LP Only)
The start button is located on the right side of the console next to the key switch. The start button is a momen-
tary push button switch that energizes the electric starter motor when pushed. The key switch must be turned
on before using the start button to start the engine.
WARNING
Do not hold the start button for more than 15 seconds at a time. Allowing the starter motor to run for more than 15
seconds at a time may cause permanent damage to the starter motor.
To start the engine, push and hold the switch until the engine starts.
BATTERY VOLT METER (Gas/LP Only)
The battery volt meter is used to monitor the charging system on GAS/LP Powered machines.
The meter indicates the voltage of the battery. A properly charged battery will indicate approximately 13.8 volts. A
reading of less than 12 volts could be an indication of a charging system fault.
CHOKE CONTROL (Gas/LP Only)
The choke control is located on the console. The choke governs the air/fuel mixture during the combustion cycle
of the engine operation. The choke should be pulled out while starting the engine and then gradually pushed
back in after the engine warms up.
LOW OIL LIGHT (Gas/LP Only)
The low oil light is located on the console. The low oil light is part of a protection feature for the engine. When
the oil level drops below a safe level the engine shuts off and illuminates the light to advise the operator of the
low oil level. When this occurs check the oil level in the engine and add oil as necessary. The oil level must be
full before the engine will start.
FILTER SHAKER SWITCH
The filter shaker switch is a two position rocker switch that is located on the console. When the filter shaker
switch is set to the “ON” position the filter shaker will operate automatically for approximately 20 seconds after
the key switch is turned off. The “OFF” position disables the automatic shake cycle which would normally occur
after turning the key switch off.
