1. Fuel Gauge

The fuel gauge, located on the left side of the instrument panel, monitors the fuel level in the fuel tank. The needle pointing to the right indicates a full tank. The ignition switch must be in the ON position to read the fuel gauge.

6. Parking Brake Indicator Light

The bulb illuminates when the ignition switch is in the ON position and the parking brake is engaged. The light flashes if attempting to start the tractor with the brake not engaged.

7. PTO Indicator Light

2. Tachometer

The tachometer, located on the right side of the instrument panel, shows the engine speed in revolutions per minute (RPM). Optimal operating engine speed is 3500 RPM as indicated by the orange line. When operating PTO driven attach- ments the engine RPM indicator should be at or very near the orange line.

3. Battery Indicator Light

The bulb illuminates in a flashing mode to indicate the battery is being discharged. If this warning lamp comes on during operation, check the charging system for possible causes and/or contact your Cub Cadet dealer.

4. Engine Oil Pressure Light

The bulb illuminates when the ignition switch is in the ON position and should turn off shortly after the engine is started. Illumination of this warning lamp indicates low engine oil pressure. If the bulb comes on while the engine is running, stop the engine immediately and check for possible causes.

5. Engine Coolant Temperature Light

Illumination of this warning lamp indicates the temperature of the engine coolant has risen above the prescribed operating range. If the light comes on while operating the tractor, eliminate all loads and try cooling the engine by running at half throttle (Approx. 1600 to 1800 RPM) for a few minutes. Stop the engine and allow to cool; then check for possible causes (e.g. low coolant level, plugged radiator screen).

The light comes on in a fixed mode whenever the PTO switch is in the ON position, with the following exceptions.

The light will illuminate in a flashing mode if attempting to start the tractor with the PTO switch in the ON position.

The light will change to the flashing mode when the PTO switch is on, but the reverse pedal has been engaged and the reverse override has NOT been engaged

8. Hourmeter

The hourmeter records the hours and tenths of an hour (right most digit) that the tractor has been operated. The hourmeter is activated whenever the ignition switch is in the ON position. Keep a record of the actual hours of tractor operation to ensure all maintenance procedures are completed according to the schedule in this manual.

9. Hazard Light Indicator

The two arrows will flash in conjunction with the amber hazard lights when the hazard light switch is turned on.

10. Glow Plug Indicator Light

Illuminates when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position. The light remains lit for a preset time while the glow plugs heat the precombustion chambers of the diesel engine.

NOTE: By design, some of the instrument panel lights will momentarily remain lit after the ignition switch has been turned to the OFF position.
