INSTRUMENT CLUSTER – USING THE INSTRUMENTS
(g.18/C)
Engine water temperature indicator
In normal use, the temperature pointer moves from the bot-
tom of the instrument (Min) and stops when it reaches the
first quarter of the scale; this is the optimum working con-
dition for the engine. If the temperature rises excessively,
approaching the maximum level (Max), stop the engine and
check the cause. The red pilot light switches when the maxi-
mum temperature alarm is triggered. To avoid damaging the
engine when it is cold, operate with a low number of revs
(max 1500) until the water reaches the optimum temperature.
Engine speed indicator
The engine speed indicator shows the number of revolutions
the engine is accomplishing at any given moment.
Fuel level indicator
The fuel level pointer indicates the amount of diesel in the
fuel tank. When the fuel tank is full, the pointer is positioned
on the letter “F”. The pointer gradually descends towards
the red area, which indicates the minimum fuel level (reser-
ve), also signalled by the yellow pilot light. When the pointer
stops on the letter “E”, this indicates there is no more fuel
left. To avoid damaging the engine, always keep the pointer
above the minimum fuel level.
Liquid Crystal Display
The LCD features the clock, hour counter (including display of
the hours of machine use), the drive status (indicating the letter
“N” if the machine is in neutral - gear lever in neutral), tachymeter
(optional), odometer (optional), engine errors, service due.
