Starting the Engine

Sit in the driver's seat and fasten the seat belt. Secure the cab doors (if equipped).
Place the transmission in PARK.
Apply the brakes. Do not press the throttle pedal while starting the engine.
Turn the ignition key past the ON/RUN position to START. Engage the starter for a maximum of five seconds. Release the key when the engine starts.
If the engine does not start within five seconds, return the ignition switch to the OFF position and wait five seconds. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until the engine starts.
Vary the engine RPM slightly with the throttle to aid in warm up until the engine idles smoothly.

NOTICE

Operating the vehicle immediately after starting could cause engine damage. Allow the engine to warm up for several minutes before operating the vehicle.
