Instruments
1. Tachometer - Driven from the engine ECU, the tachometer indicates
the number of engine crankshaft revolutions per minute. The needle
shows the variations in engine operating speed. Never accelerate the
engine to speeds indicated by the red zone on the dial face.
2. Speedometer - The speedometer indicates travel speed in kilometres
per hour (displayed white) and miles per hour, (displayed yellow). A
digital display is centered at the base of the speedometer, consisting
of a two line LCD. The upper line displays total engine hours or total
distance travelled in kilometres or miles. The lower line indicates trip
distance run since last reset in kilometres or miles. Refer to Section 3
for details
3. Fuel Level Gauge - Indicates fuel level within the tank. Should the fuel
level drop below 25% a warning light (3a) on the instrument display will
illuminate. Fill the tank overnight to minimize condensation in the tank.
Avoid a dry tank condition as this will result in a requirement to bleed
the fuel system.
4. Hydraulic Oil Temperature Gauge - Indicates hydraulic oil operating
temperature. The gauge should read in the white zone during normal
operation. Should the temperature increase (above 80 Deg), a warn-
ing light (4a) on the instrument display will illuminate. If the gauge
reads in the red zone, stop the machine and investigate the cause.
5. Transmission Oil Temperature Gauge - Indicates transmission oil
operating temperature. The gauge should read in the white zone dur-
ing normal operation. If the gauge reads in the red zone and the warn-
ing light (5a) on the instrument display illuminates, stop vehicle and
investigate the cause.
6. Engine Coolant Temp Gauge - This gauge should read in the white
zone after the engine has warmed. If the gauge reads in the red zone
the warning light (6a) on the instrument display will illuminate. Stop the
engine and investigate the cause.
