<Caution>
z When welding is performed, do not turn the output selector switch, which causes the burnout
of the switch.
z ECO is designed for welding only. The circuit breaker trips when ECO is used for AC power
supply.
5-2 Monitor Lamp
The equipment is equipped with monitoring function of oil
pressure, battery charge and water/coolant Temperature.
When it is started by the starter switch from STOP to RUN
under normal condition, Oil Pressure and Battery lamps will
flash, and then the lamps will go off, immediately after the
engine starts.
When abnormality is detected either in water temperature or in oil pressure, the corresponding
monitor lamp will flash, and the automatic shutoff shall be engaged to the engine.
When the automatic shutoff is engaged, turn the starter switch to STOP position, and then restart
the engine. In the event the automatic shutoff is engaged next time, check all parts of the
corresponding alarm.
5-2.1 Oil Pressure Monitor Lamp
Danger : Injuries
z Close all doors and place locks during operating this equipment, to avoid injuries by uninten-
tionally touching cooling fan and fan belt.
Caution : Burns
z Do not touch the engine and muffler during operation and immediately after stopping the
equipment, for the temperature can reach extremely high.
z When checking engine oil, always stop the engine, and wait until the engine cools down. If
you open either the oil gauge or the oil filter cap during operation, hot oil may cause some
injury.
When the engine oil pressure drops during operation, the oil pressure monitor lamp will flash,
and the automatic shutoff will be engaged.
When this occurs, check the engine oil level, and replenish to the maximum level if needed.
<Caution>
z The engine oil pressure monitor cannot detect the degradation of engine oil itself. Please
check the engine oil periodically, and change if needed. (Refer to No. 11. Maintenance.)
5-2.2 Battery Charge Monitor Lamp
When the battery is unable to be charged during operation, the battery charge monitor lamp will
flash and the automatic shutoff will be engaged. In the event it will happen, consult with the au-
thorized distributor or our engineering section.
<Caution>
z The battery charge monitor cannot detect the degradation of battery life nor the battery fluid
