and buzzer will be activated when ignition switch
is turned ON if engine oil pressure is below 7 psi
(50
kPa)
for the gasoline engine
or
below
11
psi

(RPM)
.
ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAUGE
(E)
· Monitors
the temperature
of
the engine coolant. With engine
running, temperature gauge should read in the
180• - 225·F operating range
{82•
• 107•C).
Allow engine temperature
to
rise
to
this range
before beginning opera
ti
on. If gauge reaches
approximately 225•F {107•C) a warning buzzer
will sound. Stop engine immediately and determine
cause. (See Trouble Shooting section.)
NOTE: If a buzzer sounds when engine temp-
erature Is below 225·F (107•C) and
no
indicator
light [(A),
