5. Fuel Gauge
6. Glow Plug Indicator Light
The information cluster gauge contains a tachom-
eter, speedometer, hour meter, water temperature
gauge (liquid cooled engines only), fuel gauge, and
glow plug indicator light (diesel engine only).
The tachometer displays the engine speed in RPM.
The speedometer displays the speed of the power
unit. The speedometer can be set to display either
miles per hour (mph) or kilometers per hour (kph).
The hour meter records the accumulated time the
ignition key has been switched to the on position.
The water temperature gauge displays the tem-
perature of the engine cooling system (liquid cooled
engines only).
The fuel gauge displays the level of fuel in the tank.
The glow plug indicator light indicates activation
of the glow plugs for preheating the engine (diesel
engine only). The glow plugs activate when the key
is turned to the on position. When the glow plug light
turns off, the engine is ready to start.

The warning cluster gauge contains a volt meter, a
park brake indicator light, low engine oil pressure
warning light, high water temperature warning light,
high hydraulic uid temperature warning light, and
low voltage warning light.
The volt meter displays the voltage level of the
charging system.
The park brake indicator light activates when the
park brake is set.
The low engine oil pressure warning light acti-
vates when the engine oil pressure is below safe
levels. The light comes on when the ignition key is
switched to the on position and stays illuminated until
the engine is started and safe oil pressure develops.
If this light comes on during operation, immediately
shut off the engine. Do not restart the engine until the
problem has been located and corrected.
The water high temperature warning light acti-
vates when the temperature of the engine cooling
systems reaches unsafe levels. If this light comes
on during operation, park the power unit, shut off
the engine, and allow the engine to cool. Check the
radiator screen and engine compartment and clean,
if necessary. If the engine continually overheats, refer
to the troubleshooting section for possible problems.
The hydraulic uid high temperature warning
light activates when the hydraulic uid reaches
unsafe levels. If this light comes on during opera-
tion, park the power unit and move the throttle lever
to the idle position. Check the hydraulic cooling fan
to ensure it is operating properly and refer to the
troubleshooting section for possible problems.
The low voltage warning light activates when the
voltage drops to unacceptable levels. If this light
comes on, shut off any unnecessary lights and
accessories to reduce current draw. If voltage contin-
ues to drop, park the power unit, shut off the engine,
and turn the ignition key to the off position. Refer to
the troubleshooting section for possible problems.
Warning Alarm (C)
The warning alarm works with the warning cluster
gauge to alert the operator to problems. The warn-
ing alarm sounds a continuous signal whenever a
warning is displayed on the warning cluster gauge.
If the warning alarm sounds, immediately check the
warning cluster gauge to determine the cause of the
warning and then take appropriate action.
Ignition Switch (D)
1. Off or Stop Position -
all 12 volt power going
through the key switch
is off.
2. On or Run Position -
engine run position, 12
volt power is sent to
accessories.
3. Start Position - when the
key is turned to the start
position, the starter will engage.
