Hour Meter

The hour meter records the number of hours the engine has
operated. It operates when the engine is running. Use these
times for scheduling regular maintenance (Figure 6).

Fuel Gauge

The fuel gauge is located with the hour meter, and the bars
light up when the ignition switch is in the On position (Figure
6).
The indicator light appears when the fuel level is low
(approximately one gallon remaining in the fuel tank).
Safety-interlock Indicators
There are symbols on the hour meter, and the indicate with a
black triangle that the interlock component is in the correct
position (Figure 6).
Battery-indicator Light
If the ignition key is turned to the On position for a few
seconds, the battery voltage will be displayed in the area
where the hours are normally displayed.
The battery light turns on when the ignition is turned on and
when the charge is below the correct operating level (Figure
6).
