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 obstacle or person could result
in serious injury or death.1. Stop the vehicle, take your foot off the ac-celerator 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 synchro-
nizing 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
indicator light electrical circuit.

erly engaged or disengaged (e.g., when the
indicator and indicator light are flashing) will
cause the engine speed to be limited until
the differential gear is completely engaged
or disengaged.

For Europe only
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.
