a) When the engine is not running and the ignition switch is turned to the ON
position, the buzzer emits intermittent beeps. The intermittent beeps remind
the user that the switch is ON and the hourmeter is running. A switch left ON
could also drain the battery.
b) When the engine is running and the buzzer emits a continuous beep, the buzzer
is warning the user that the engine is overheating. Perform the following steps.
1. Disengage the mower blades, and idle down the engine.
2. Look at the temperature gauge to determine if temperature continues to
increase. If it does, turn the unit off and allow the engine and engine
components to cool.
3. Check the coolant level. If necessary fill with coolant as described in Section
5.1.2.
4. Remove any debris on or around the radiator that may restrict airflow.
5. Check to see if the water pump/alternator belt is intact. If belt is missing, do
not run unit, as unit can overheat and damage the engine. See Engine
Service Dealer.
c) When the engine is running and the buzzer emits intermittent beeps, the
buzzer is warning the user that the engine oil pressure is low or the alternator
is not charging. Perform the following steps.
1. Turn the unit off, allow the engine and engine components to cool.
2. Check the oil level and fill, if necessary, as described in Section 5.1.1.
3. Check for oil leaking from engine. If the engine is leaking, see Engine
Service Dealer.
4. Check to see if the water pump/alternator belt is intact. If belt is
present, there could be a charging problem, see Engine Service
Dealer. If belt is missing, do not run, as unit can overheat and
damage the engine. See Engine Service Dealer.
Fill fuel tanks.
For 31 HP Daihatsu Gas Units:
For best results use only clean, fresh regular grade unleaded gasoline with an
octane rating of 87 or higher. Regular grade leaded gasoline may also be used;
however, combustion chamber and cylinder head will require more frequent
service. See Engine Owner's Manual.
For 27 HP Daihatsu Diesel Units:
For best results use only clean, fresh diesel fuel, with a cetane rating of 40 higher.
NOTE: Do not use kerosene or gasoline instead of diesel fuel. Failure to
observe this caution will damage the engine.
For All Units:
DO NOT add oil to gasoline.
DO NOT overfill fuel tank. Never fill the fuel tank so that the fuel level rises
above a level that is 1/2" below the bottom of the filler neck to allow for fuel
expansion and prevent fuel spillage.
Make sure you understand the controls, their locations, their functions, and their
safety requirements.
Refer to Maintenance, Section 5, and perform all the necessary inspection and
maintenance steps.
Open fuel shut-off valve (left or right tank).
