The
water temperature gauge
displays the tem-
perature of the engine cooling system.
The
water high temperature warning light
and
audible alarm activate when the temperature of the
engine cooling system reaches unsafe levels. If this
light and alarm comes on during operation, park the
power unit, turn the PTO off, reduce engine speed
to low idle, and allow the engine to cool. Check the
radiator screen and clean, if necessary. If engine
temperature continues to rise, shut off the engine. If
the engine continually overheats, refer to the trou-
bleshooting section for possible problems.
The
tachometer / hour meter
displays both the
engine run time and the engine speed. When
the engine is not running and the ignition switch
is turned to the On position, the gauge displays
the accumulated time the ignition key has been
switched to the On position. When the engine is run-
ning, the gauge displays the engine speed in RPM.
The
low voltage warning light
and audible alarm
activate when the voltage drops to unacceptable
levels. If this light and alarm comes on, shut off
any unnecessary lights and accessories to reduce
current draw. If voltage continues to drop, park the
power unit, shut off the engine, and turn the ignition
key to the off position. Refer to the troubleshooting
section for possible problems.
The
low engine oil pressure warning light
and
audible alarm activate when the engine oil pressure
is below safe levels. The light comes on when the
ignition key is switched to the on position and stays
illuminated until the engine is started and safe oil
pressure develops. If this light and alarm comes on
during operation, immediately shut off the engine.
Do not restart the engine until the problem has been
located and corrected.

Warning Alarm (D)
The warning alarm works with the RPM/Hour
cluster gauge to alert the operator to problems.
The warning alarm sounds a continuous signal
whenever a warning is displayed on the RPM/
Hour cluster gauge. If the warning alarm sounds,
immediately check the RPM/Hour cluster gauge to
determine the cause of the warning and then take
appropriate action.
