Start Machine and Practice Basic Driving

What happens here

Start the skid steer's engine and allow it to warm up for a minute. For initial driving practice, avoid full throttle. Instead, keep the throttle slightly above idle. Begin by simply driving the machine around in an open area to get a feel for its movement and responsiveness. Focus solely on maneuvering without attempting to use the bucket or other attachments.

Goal: Gain initial comfort and control over the skid steer's movement.
