2. Tachometer

The tachometer shows the engine speed in revolu- tions per minute (RPM). Optimal engine operating speed is approximately 2500-3600 RPM. When operating PTO driven attachments the RPM indica- tor needle should be within the green range on the tachometer dial.

3. Battery Indicator Light
