The SPILL CONT warning indicator lights up if the liquid stored in the spill containment
exceeds approximately 10 gal. during operation. If it lights up, immediately stop the engine
and flush the liquid stored in the spill containment.
(Refer to section “10. Inspection/Maintenance (8) Flushing Liquid in Spill Containment”.)
(7) ENGINE (Engine Malfunction) Warning Indicator
The ENGINE warning indicator lights up if the coolant temperature is high, the oil pressure is
low, the engine overspeeds, the battery voltage is low or some other engine fault occurs
during operation. If this occurs, a malfunction code is displayed on the engine and available
output monitors, and the engine automatically stops or the engine output is reduced.
If the ENGINE warning indicator lights up, contact the authorized distributor where the

regardless of whether the engine is running.

Displays the engine speed, water temperature and oil
pressure. Switching the selector switch changes the
display in the following order: Speed

Speed
Displays the engine speed. 1800 rpm is displayed
when at 60 Hz.
Water Temp
Displays the temperature of the engine coolant.
Normal temperature displayed during operation should generally between 158 and
203 °F depending on use conditions.
< NOTE >
If the coolant temperature rises above 212 °F, imm ediately stop all equipment using the generator,
and idle the engine while cooling it to lower the coolant temperature.
Oil Press
Displays the pressure of the engine lubrication system. Normal pressure displayed during
operation should generally between 35 and 57 psi depending on use conditions.
However, the pressure will rise above this range immediately after starting a cold engine.
Idle the engine until it reaches the normal pressure.
