1.8. FUEL GAUGE
The gauge indicates fuel level in the fuel tank when the
main switch is in the ON (
) position.
E: Empty
F: Full
NOTE:
The gauge can not indicate an accurate fuel level
when the front mower is on an incline. It takes a
little time to indicate an accurate level after the
front mower recovers its horizontal position.
1.9. HOUR / TACHOMETER
The hourmeter,A, counts operation hours of the front
mower and show them in 5-digit number. The least signifi-
cant figure shows one tenth hour of operation.
The tachometer,B, shows current running speed of the
engine by one hundredth of engine speed (x 100).
1.10. COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE
Gauge indicates engine coolant temperature when starter
switch is selected to ON (
).
C: - Shows too cool temperature for severe work. Allow to
warm (needle in mid position) before applying heavy
load.
H: - Indicates overheating. Reduce engine speed to idle,
allow to run at no load several minutes and investi-
gate cause (refer to “Troubleshooting”).
IMPORTANT:
When the engine coolant is over-heated,
the buzzer sounds while the PTO switch is
in the ON (
) position. The buzzer turns
off when the PTO switch is turned to the
OFF (
) position.
When the buzzer sounds, turn the PTO
switch to the OFF (
) position, decelerat-
ed the engine to idling, and wait until the
buzzer turns off.
When the buzzer turns off, stop the engine
and correct the trouble (clogged grass or
dust around engine, radiator, etc.). Then
re-start operation.
WARNING: When inspecting the radiator, be
sure that the engine cools down sufficiently.
Never release the radiator cap while the cool-
ant is hot, or boiling water will gush out.
