SECTION 2 - OPERATION

Fuel Level

The Electronic Instrument Control System will notify the operator that the fuel level in the fuel tanks has reached 1/12 of total fuel capacity 1/12 equals 68.1 L (18 gals.) and that tractor refueling is required.

The system also has a feature to assist the operator during refueling procedures. An audible indicator for fuel level alerts the operator that the tanks are 3/4 and 7/8 full.

The following description details the reaction of the electronic monitor, low fuel level indicator light, and audible alarm during a low fuel level situation and tractor refueling operations:

With the key in the “RUN” position, and the fuel level at 1/12 capacity in the tanks, the low fuel level warning light, 1, on the warning light bar will illuminate. There will be a six-second delay before the audible alarm sounds a solid tone for four seconds. The upper portion of the monitor will flash “LOW” “FUEL”. The lower portion of the monitor will continue to display whatever is selected on the rotary select switch.

The operator can cancel the audible alarm and the “LOW” “FUEL” display on the upper portion of the monitor by pressing the acknowledge/reset button once. The low fuel level light on the warning light bar will stay lit until the low fuel level is corrected. The audible alarm and “LOW” “FUEL” display will not return until the ignition switch is turned to the “OFF” position and then returned to the “RUN” position.

Low fuel level is considered a non-critical alarm function and will not cause the electronic monitor to go into the “STOP” mode or cause the automatic shutdown to activate.

ATTENTION: It is important that the operator refuel the tractor as soon as possible.
