F.Ignition Switch

A.Ignition Switch (Diesel)

The ignition switch starts and stops the engine, it has four positions:

HEAT

Heats the glow plugs.

OFF

Stops the engine and shuts off the

 

electrical system.

ON

Allows the engine to run and powers the

 

electrical system.

START Cranks the engine for starting.

NOTE: Never leave the ignition switch in the ON position with the engine stopped–this drains the battery.

E. Choke Control (Gas)

Pulling the round choke control knob (I) out fully chokes the engine for cold starts. (A warm engine may not require choking.)

F. Ignition Switch (Gas)

The ignition switch starts and stops the engine, it has three positions:

OFF

Stops the engine and shuts off the

 

electrical system.

RUN

Allows the engine to run and powers the

 

electrical system.

START Cranks the engine for starting.

NOTE: Never leave the ignition switch in the RUN position with the engine stopped–this drains the battery.

G. Hour Meter

Measures the time of the PTO being engaged.

H. Voltmeter

Measures the battery voltage.

I. Water Temperature Gauge

Measures the engine coolant temperature.

J. Indicator Lights

The indicator lights will illuminate and the buzzer will sound when the ignition switch is in the “ON” position before cranking the engine. After the engine is running, the indicator lights will illuminate and the buzzer will sound when there is either low oil pressure or high coolant temperature.

K. Fuel Level Gauge

Displays the total fuel level of both tanks on the diesel model, and fuel level of the left-hand tank only on the gas model.
