4. OPERATION
PRELIMINARY CONTROLS
Inspect the working area as explained in the safety instructions. Fill in the water tank for wet use or connect the vacuum
extractor and ensure that the vacuum hose is clear and it will follow the machine easily.
Make sure the bonnet air filter on top of the engine is clean. It should be cleaned hourly.
Check the engine oil level, screw the dipstick in to get reading. Make sure the tank is full (see also “Storage Propane tanks).
TANK and FUEL LINES - Check the tank and fuel lines for any sign of wear and tear, such as cracks or any corrosion. Screw the
brass fuel line fitting onto the tank service-valve (hand tight only). This connection
MUST
be secure because the service valve
has a safety valve inside it, which will only open if the brass fuel-line fitting is
COMPLETELY
seated into the service valve.

OVERVIEW OF FEATURES
Closed Loop Fuel Management System
The Fuel-Minder uses closed-loop feedback from the O2 sensor to control the amount of fuel introduced to the
engine via the Fuel Control Valve. This technology continuously monitors engine emissions and is capable of making
fuel corrections to compensate for varying engine loads and conditions.
BUILT-IN FUEL LOCKOFF CONTROLLER
The Fuel-Minder also controls the fuel lock off and only allows fuel to pass through if it detects the engine is cranking.
Once the Fuel-Minder is powered off from the equipment key switch, the Fuel-Minder closes the fuel lock off and
shuts the engine down immediately.
DUAL HOUR METERS
The Fuel-Minder has two hour meters, one for the engine and the other for equipment. The Engine Hours are
resettable, which should only be done if the engine is replaced. The Equipment Hours (located in Options Menu) is
non-resettable and shows the total hours on the equipment, similar to the odometer of a vehicle
.
BATTERY VOLTMETER
This feature allows for real-time display of the battery’s voltage, which also helps for troubleshooting any battery
or charging system issues that may arise.
