water pump indicator hole or flow is
intermittent, stop engine and check
water intake holes for obstruction. The
Guardian System must be RESET
before engine will operate at higher

Engine Overspeed Continuous The warning horn is activated any time
engine speed exceeds the maximum
allowable RPM. The system will limit
the engine speed to within the
allowable range. Engine overspeed

ENGINE GUARDIAN SYSTEM
The Engine Guardian System monitors the critical sensors on the engine for any early indications of problems.
The system will respond to a problem by emitting a continuous beep and/or reducing engine power in order to
provide engine protection.
If Guardian System has been activated, reduce throttle speed. The horn will turn off when throttle speed is within
the allowable limit. Consult your dealer for assistance.
