START UP INSTRUCTIONS
1. Check the oil level before starting the engine.
Replenish if necessary. Use specified oil as indicated
on page 28, Table 8.
2. Check the coolant level in the radiator and subtank.
Always maintain the antifreeze level between the ‘Full’

the fuel cock lever to the ‘ON’ position (Figure 16)
located inside the engine compartment.

‘Single’ for one operator or ‘Dual’ for two operators.
