Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge is located with the hour meter, and the bars
light up when the ignition switch is on (
Figure 6 ).
The indicator light appears when the fuel level is
low—approximately 3.8 L (1 US gallon) remaining in the
fuel tank.

Hour Meter
The hour meter records the number of hours that the engine
has operated. It operates when the engine is running. Use
these times for scheduling regular maintenance (
Figure 6 ).
Safety-Interlock Indicators
There are symbols on the hour meter which indicate with a
black triangle that the interlock component is in the correct
position (
Figure 6 ).
Battery-Indicator Light
When you initially turn the ignition key to the R
UN
position
for a few seconds, the battery voltage will be displayed in the
area where the hours are normally displayed.
The battery-indicator light turns on when you turn the
ignition key and when the charge is below the correct
operating level (
Figure 6 ).
Throttle Control
The throttle control is variable between Fast and Slow .
Choke
Use the choke to start a cold engine. Pull the choke knob up
to engage it.
