OPERATION POWERTEK
BY PASS CONTROL (SP)
The hydrostatic also has a 'by-pass" control which enables the operator to manually move the
machine when desired. This control is located at the rear of the main frame-lower left-hand side
and is clearly identified. To put the grinder in a "free-wheeling mode" rotate the bypass handle
up until it locks in place. To return it to powered travel, lower the bypass handle to original
position. See Fig. 5.
! CAUTION
DO NOT start or run the engine with the “by-pass” lever in the “up” or the “free-
wheeling” position! DAMAGE will occur to the hydrostatic transmission. Use the “up”
position ONLY when you wish to move the unit manually without the engine running.
