ECO GAUGE
ECO gauge shows the instantaneous fuel consumption.
The instantaneous fuel consumption means the fuel consump-
tion rate at each moment, which varies with the work load and
engine speed.
(A) Green range
The instantaneous fuel consumption is at good to medium lev-
el.
(B) Yellow range
The instantaneous fuel consumption is at a bad level.
REMARK
Even if the graduation of gauge enters the yellow range, there is no abnormality on the machine. However, for
the conservation of global environment, reduce the engine output to a point where there is no adverse effect on
the operation, and perform energy saving operations within the green range.
Decrease the frequency of travel. It also helps energy saving operations. Consider the best way of operation for
energy saving.
