Everything under control

Tachometer
The yellow advance warning field, arrow 1,
changes depending on the engine temperature.
As the engine temperature rises, the permissi-
ble engine speed also increases.
During the warm-up phase, avoid engine
speeds in the advance warning field as much as
possible.
When the engine speeds reach the red warning
field, arrow 2, the engine speed governor is
activated to protect the engine.
