Shifting: neutral to reverse
WARNING
Before you shift into reverse, make sure there
are no obstacles or people behind you. When it
is safe to proceed, go slowly. Hitting an obsta-
cle or person could result in serious injury or
death.1. Stop the vehicle. Take your foot off the accel-
erator pedal and check behind you.
2. Apply the brake pedal.
3. Shift from neutral to reverse or vice versa by
moving the drive select lever along the shift
guide.
When in reverse, the reverse indicator
light should be on. Due to the synchroniz-
ing mechanism in the engine, the light
may not come on until the vehicle starts
moving.
If the light does not come on, ask a
Yamaha dealer to inspect the reverse in-
dicator light electrical circuit.

Brake light switch adjustment
The brake light switch, which is activated by the
brake pedal, is properly adjusted when the brake
light comes on just before braking takes effect. If
necessary, adjust the brake light switch as follows.
1. Open the hood. (See pages 8-17–8-19 for
hood opening and closing procedures.)
2. Turn the adjusting nut while holding the brake
light switch in place. To make the brake light
come on earlier, turn the adjusting nut in
directiona. To make the brake light come on
later, turn the adjusting nut in directionb.
3. Close the hood.

The figures quoted are emission levels and are not
necessarily safe working levels. Whilst there is a
correlation between the emission and exposure
levels, this cannot be used reliably to determine
whether or not further precautions are required.
Factors that influence the actual level of exposure
of work-force include the characteristics of the
work room, the other sources of noise, etc. i.e. the
number of machines and other adjacent process-
es, and the length of time for which an operator is
exposed to the noise. Also the permissible expo-
sure level can vary from country. This information,
however, will enable the user of the machine to
make a better evaluation of the hazard and risk.
