3. Instrument Panel, Switches and Hand Controls

(1) Fuel Gauge
This gauge indicates level of fuel in the fuel tank.
(2) Tachometer
This meter indicates the current engine speed in
increments of 100 rpm.
(3) Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
This gauge indicates the current engine coolant
temperature.
IMPORTANT:
●If the pointer of the engine coolant temperature
gauge is in the red zone or the reading is rapidly
increasing, immediately decrease the load of the
tractor. To lower the coolant temperature, run the
engine at idle until the reading on the gauge falls in
the green zone.
Next, shut down the engine. Allow it to cool off, and
only then, check the following points.
(1) The coolant water level in the radiator and sub-
tank is adequate.
(2) The radiator and radiator screen are free from
dust deposition.
(3) The fan belt is correctly tensioned.
For more details about the maintenance
procedure, refer to the PERIODIC SERVICE
section.
●If the pointer of the engine coolant temperature
gauge enters the red zone again or the reading
rapidly increases again, stop the engine and
immediately contact your local Cub Cadet Yanmar
dealer for technical assistance.
