ENGINE CONTROLS (Items 1 through 9)
1. RUN STOP SWITCH
Toggling the switch to the RUN position energizes the fuel
solenoid for approximately 30 seconds.
The engine must be
started within that time or the fuel solenoid will deenergize, and
the switch must be toggled to reset the timer.
2. START PUSHBUTTON
Energizes the starter motor to crank the engine. With the engine
"Run / Stop" switch in the "Run" position, push and hold the Start
button to crank the engine; release as the engine starts. Do not
press while engine is running since this can cause damage to the
ring gear and/or starter motor
.
3. HOUR METER
The hour meter displays the total time that the engine has been
running. This meter is a useful indicator for scheduling preventive
maintenance.
4. FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
Displays the level of diesel fuel in the fuel tank.
The operator must watch the fuel level closely to prevent
running out of fuel and possibly having to bleed the system.
5.
ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The gauge displays the engine coolant temperature.
