Low Oil Shutoff Switch (if equipped)
The low oil shutoff switch is designed to prevent engine damage
caused by an insufficient amount of oil.
When starting the machine:
•
if the warning light flashes quickly once, this indicates the engine
oil level is acceptable.
•
if the warning light flashes slowly, the engine will start but shut off
after 10-12 seconds, this indicates that the engine oil level is low.
Add oil to the engine. See
Technical Data
for oil quantity and
type.
•
if the warning light stays on continuously, the engine will start and
continue to run but the low oil shutoff switch is not functioning
properly. Check the switch for proper wire connections. If the light
continues to stay on, replace the switch.
•
if the warning light does not flash quickly once, and the engine
starts and continues to run, the low oil shutoff switch is not
functioning properly. Check the switch for proper wire
connections and grounding. If the light still does not flash when
starting the machine, replace the switch.
