Anybody familiar with these machines?

We have one, built around 1997. Zero tailswing, sideshift boom.

Trying to figure out what some of the control switches do, namely the powerI/powerII, 1/2 - work - ???, and the button on the right control lever ( left control lever is for the horn).

I looked into getting a manual, but I can't read Japanese and they don't make one in English.

Hello, I have the same machine.i have noticed that with Power2 switch the machine is powerful! the 1/2 swith cuts the pump. check this doing forward-backward.

I don't think my switches are working, I guess I have to track them back to the pump. Does yours have the idle knob too?

 

[gpap123]

Yes, it had that idle knob but never worked even the electronic throttle control. I am not sure about what is going wrong... Is the Ecu or the throttle control?
Anyway Here is a solution.....
