Instrument Panel
The instruments and indicator lights are grouped together
on an instrument panel. K Fig 29. ( T 41).
Instruments provided are a hourmeter and a fuel level
gauge.
As well as indicator lights for the direction indicators, main
beam etc. there are warning lights for various fault
conditions. When a warning light comes on an alarm will
sound. The only way to cancel the alarm is to set the
starter to 'off'.
Do not use the machine if it has a fault condition, or you
might damage the engine and/or the transmission.
All instruments and indicators will be turned off when the
starter switch is set to off. (But the hazard warning indicator
will still operate if the hazard warning lights are switched
on.)

Instruments
A Fuel Gauge
Indicates the level of diesel fuel in the tank. Do not
let the tank run dry, or air will enter the fuel system.
Note: At the end of every working day, fill the tank
with the correct type of fuel. This will prevent
overnight condensation from developing in the fuel.
B Hourmeter
Records the total running time of the engine. Use it
to keep a check of running hours during
maintenance intervals.
