(105
o
C) (approximate), the high temperature warning
light should come on.
NOTE: When machine is in mow operation, high cool-
ant temperature will cause the cutting decks to shut off
in addition to warning light illumination.
Engine Oil Pressure Light
The engine oil pressure light should come on when the
ignitionswitchisintheRUN positionwiththeenginenot
running. Also, it should illuminate with the engine run-
ning if the engine oil pressure drops to an unsafe level.

assemblyintheServiceand RepairssectionofChapter
6 -- Chassis).
2. Locatetheindicatorlighttobetestedanddisconnect
the wire harness electrical connector from the light.
3. Apply 12 VDC to terminals 1A and 2A (Fig. 20).
4. Ground terminals 1B and 2B (Fig. 20).
5. Both indicator lights should illuminate.
6. Connect wire harness electrical connector to the in-
dicator light.
7. Install control arm cover to machine (see Control
Arm Assembly in the Service and Repairs section of
