The hour meter has three functions:
1. Timer (TMR1)
Measures the time spent on individual jobs.
Press and hold the toggle button to reset the
timer to zero. TMR1 will then start measuring
engine run time until it is reset to zero again.
2. Service Alert
Displays maintenance interval reminders for:
• Changing engine oil (CHG OIL)
• Changing the hydraulic oil and filter (CHG
HYD OIL)
• Servicing the air filter (SRV AIRFILTER)
The alert starts counting down two hours
before the maintenance is due. The meter
flashes NOW when it reaches the
maintenance time.
Press and hold the toggle button to reset the
maintenance clock to zero after performing
the service.
3. Service Interval Presets
Hour meter is preset for recommended
service intervals.
• Hydraulic oil and filter: First 75 hours, every
400 hours thereafter.
• Engine oil and filter: First 25 hours, every
100 hours thereafter
NOTICE:
The preset engine oil service
intervals in the hour meter are normal
recommended intervals. Specific engine
manufacturer’s recommendations may vary.
FILLING FUEL TANK
To add fuel to the fuel tank:
1. Clean fuel cap and surrounding area to
prevent dust, dirt, and debris from
entering fuel tanks.
2. Remove fuel caps.
IMPORTANT:
Refer to engine manual for
correct type and grade of fuel.
3. Fill fuel tank to the bottom of filler neck.
on page 40 for fuel
tank capacity.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT OVERFILL! This
equipment and/or its engine may include
evaporative emissions control system
components, required to meet EPA and/or
CARB regulations, that will only function
properly when the fuel tank has been filled to
the recommended level. Overfilling may
cause permanent damage to evaporative
emissions control system components. Filling
to the recommended level ensures a vapor
gap required to allow for fuel expansion. Pay
close attention while filling the fuel tank to
ensure that the recommended fuel level
inside the tank is not exceeded. Use a
portable gasoline container with an
appropriately sized dispensing spout when
filling the tank. Do not use a funnel or other
device that obstructs the view of the tank
filling process.
4. Replace fuel cap and tighten.
5. ALWAYS clean up spilled fuel.
GASOLINE
IMPORTANT:
ALWAYS use gasoline that
meets the following guidelines:
• Clean, fresh gasoline.
• A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91 RON).
High altitude use may require a different
octane. Consult your engine manual.
• Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol (gasohol)
or up to 10% MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl
ether) is acceptable.
• Use of any gasoline other than those
approved above may void the engine
warranty. If the pumps are not marked for
the content of alcohol or ethers, check
ethanol and MTBE levels with the fuel
supplier.
• Do not modify the fuel system to use
different fuels.
• Never mix oil and gasoline.
NOTICE:
All gasoline is not the same. If the
engine experiences starting or performance
problems after using a new gasoline, switch
to a different fuel provider or fuel brand.
IMPORTANT:
Excessively oxygenated or
reformulated fuels (fuels blended with
alcohols or ethers) can damage the fuel
system or cause performance problems. If
any undesirable operating problems occur,
use a gasoline with a lower percentage of
alcohol or ether.
WARNING:
AVOID INJURY. Read
and understand entire
Safety
section before proceeding.
