(2) OIL PRESS (engine oil pressure) Warning Indicator (Low Oil Press.)
CAUTION: BURNS
Always be sure to stop the engine and allow the engine to cool when
performing inspection or maintenance of engine oil. Opening the oil gauge or
oil filler cap during operation will result in hot oil gushing out.
If the engine oil pressure drops below 0.49 x 100 kPa during operation, the OIL PRESS
and ENGINE warning indicators light up, and the engine automatically stops. If this occurs,
check the engine oil level and add engine oil until it reaches the maximum level.
< Note >
This oil pressure warning indicator cannot detect oil deterioration. Change the engine oil
periodically. (Refer to section "8-1. Checking Engine Oil".)
(3) OVER SPEED (Engine Overspeed) Warning Indicator
This generator is equipped with a function such that the engine is automatically stopped if
an engine fault occurs causing the engine speed to increase excessively. If the engine
speed rises above 2070 min
indicators light up, and the engine automatically stops. If this occurs, it is probable that
some malfunction has occurred in the engine. Contact the authorized distributor where the
generator was purchased.
(4) CHARGE (Battery Charge) Warning Indicator (Low Battery Voltage)
The BATTERY warning indicator lights up when charging is not possible during
operation.If charging is not possible and the battery voltage drops below 8 V, the ENGINE
warning indicator also lights up and the engine automatically stops. If this occurs, contact
the authorized distributor where the generator was purchased.
< Note >
This battery charging warning indicator cannot detect battery deterioration or insufficient battery
fluid. (Refer to section "8-6. Checking the Battery".)
(5) AIR FILTER (Air Cleaner Clogging) Warning Indicator
The AIR FILTER warning indicator lights up if the air cleaner element becomes clogged
during operation. If it lights up, immediately stop the engine and clean or replace the air
cleaner element. (Refer to section "10. Inspection/Maintenance (3) Air Filter Element
Cleaning/Replacement".)
(6) WATER SEPARATOR (Water Separator Amount) Warning Indicator
The WATER SEPARATOR warning indicator lights up if the liquid stored in the water
separator exceeds approximately 110 ml during operation. If it lights up, immediately stop
the engine and drain the liquid stored in the water separator.
