Toro 14AP80RP544 Systems Indicator Monitor, Electric PTO Power TAKE-OFF Knob, Deck Lift Lever

SYSTEMS INDICATOR MONITOR

LCD

Located in the center of the tractor’s console, the systems indicator monitor records, and displays on its LCD, hours of tractor operation whenever the ignition key is rotated out of the STOP position.

The indicator Monitor will also remind the operator of maintenacne intervals for changing the engine oil. The LCD will alternately flash the recorded hours, “CHG” and “OIL” for five minutes, after every 50 hours of recorded operation elapse. The maintenance interval lasts for two hours (from 50-52, 100-102, 150-152, etc.). The LCD will also flash as described above for five minutes every time the tractor’s engine has been started during this maintenance interval. Before the interval expires, change the crankcase oil level as instructed in this Operator’s Manual.

If the Brake light or PTO light illuminates when attempting to start the unit, proceed as follows:

Brake — Engage the parking brake.

PTO — Move the PTO lever into the disengaged (Blade Stop) position.

It is normal for the Oil light and the Battery light to illuminate while the engine is cranking, but if either illuminates while the engine is running, proceed as follows:

Oil— Stop the tractor immediately and check the crankcase oil level as instructed in the Engine Owner’s Manual included with your unit. Add oil as required.

Battery— If this light illuminate’s while the engine is running, it indicates that the battery is in need of a charge OR that the engine’s charging system is not generating sufficient amperage. Refer to the MAINTENANCE section of this manual for the proper battery charging procedure or have the engine’s charging system checked by a authorized dealer.

On units so equipped, the ammeter measures the electrical output of the engine’s charging system. Under normal operating conditions, with the engine at full throttle, the ammeter’s needle should measure a positive charge.

The hour meter, on units so equipped, operates whenever the engine is running and records the actual hours of tractor operation.
