Instruments panel
O Painel possui uma série de instrumentos que permite
observar, na partida e durante a operação, o bom
funcionamento do motor.
Portanto, é de fundamental importância que o operador fique
atento aos mesmos.
Tachometer (engine speed meter)
This instrument indicates engine's rotations per minute and
it should be monitored constantly to achieve the best output
and torque performance from the engine.
Engine coolant temperature indicator lamp
If engine coolant temperature exceeds the normal operating
temperature, this lamp will turn on simultaneously with fuel
cutoff and consequent engine stopping.
Note: Keep the coolant level correct and
check water pump belt's tension.
Oil pressure indicator lamp
This lamp will turn on when the ignition key is turned to
"ON" position, and it will turn off just after the engine is
running. In case of engine oil low pressure, this lamp will
turn on and there will be a fuel cutoff.
Note: Check lubricating oil on a daily basis.
Hour meter
It registers the total of running hours of the engine. The
rightmost numeral indicates tenths of an hour, corresponding
to six (6) minutes for each registered unit.
Battery charging indicator lamp
When turning the ignition key to "ON" position, this lamp
turns on, and it turns off when the engine is running, which
indicates that the alternator is charging the battery. The
correct level of electrolyte and tensioning of the alternator's
belt is of extreme importance for charging the battery.
Note: Keep the correct level of battery
electrolyte.
Air filter restriction indicator lamp
Whenever an air filter restriction occurs, which impairs
engine's performance, this lamp will turn on.
Clean or replace the element within the recommended
periods
Note: Keep the air filter element always clean.
