INSTRUMENT PANEL
1. Cold Starting Indicator Light – Illuminate
when the key switch is turned to the "HEAT"
position. It remains lit for approximately 5
seconds when the key is held in position,
during which time the glow plugs are heating
the precombustion chambers.
2. Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light-
Illuminates with the key switch in the "ON" or
"HEAT" positions and remains lit for a short
period of time after the engine is started. The
light indicates oil pressure only and goes out
when sufficient oil pressure is present at the
oil sender. If the bulb becomes lit during
operation, stop the tractor engine
immediately and investigate the cause.
3. Battery Charge Warning Light- Illuminates
when the key switch is in the "ON" or "HEAT"
positions and goes out when the engine is
started. If this bulb becomes lit during
operation, it indicates that the charging
system is not operating normally. As the
battery can become fully discharged under
these conditions, the problem should be
investigated as soon as possible.
4. Proof Meter-Records the hours and portions
of hours that your tractor has been operated
based on an average engine speed of 3000
RPM. Engine speeds below 3000 RPM accu-
mulate engine hours at a slower rate than
clock hours. Engine speeds above 3000
RPM accumulate engine hours faster than
clock hours. Use the proof meter as a guide
to determine hourly service and maintenance
intervals.
5. Fuel Gauge-Indicates the amount of diesel
fuel remaining in the tank. The gauge is
activated when the key switch is in the "ON"
or "HEAT" positions. It will register empty
with the key switch in the "STOP" position.
6. Flasher Warning Lights-Operate when the
flasher switch is turned on, regardless of the
key switch position. Use the flasher warning
lights.
7. Flasher Turn Lights-Operate when the turn
signal switch is activated. Rotate the switch
to the right for right turns, the right arrow will
flash. Rotate the switch to the left for left
turns, the left arrow will flash. The key switch
has to be in the "RUN" position.
