19. ENGINE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
The engine oil pressure gauge indicates the oil pressure in the engine
lubrication system. The engine oil pressure is shown with indicator bars. Normal
operation is in the green zone. When the oil pressure decreases below a safe
operating pressure, the bars move into the red zone and flash and the warning
alarm sounds continuously. The stop master indicator turns red. The machine must not be
operated when the oil pressure is in the red zone.
NOTE: Stop the engine immediately and correct the problem.
