Before starting the engine, check to make sure that the gear levers (5-11 Fig.1)
are in neutral.
Make sure that knob N° 19 fig.1-RS/R – N° 18 fig.2-SN/A is disengaged (the
engine is prevented from starting for safety reasons).
Make sure that lever N° 3 fig.1-2 is in the independent position (for safety
reasons, the engine is prevented from starting when the lever is in the
synchronised position).
Depress the clutch (10 Fig.1-2) to close the "Push And Start" device, turn the
ignition key (Fig.7) to Pos. 1. The indicator lights will come on. Turn the ignition
key to Pos. 2. Once the engine has started, release the key which will
automatically reset to Pos. 1. Check the status indicator lights and instruments.
The water temperature thermometer needle (1. Fig.3), once the engine is hot
and during normal running will be between 80° and 100°. If it is not, check the
engine cooling circuit.
Stop the engine and check engine coolant level (Section 5.4), radiator cleaning
status and belt tension.
Each starting attempt should last for just a few seconds. Make a second attempt
after a minute so as not to run down the battery.

4.3 STOPPING THE ENGINE

Move the throttle lever (8 Fig.1-2) forward to its minimum setting and turn the
ignition switch fig. 7 to Pos. 0.
Put the parking brake on (4 Fig.1-2).
