ALARM FUNCTIONS

Illumination of a warning light may be accompanied
by an audible alarm. Depending on the severity of the
malfunction, an alarm will sound as follows.

Critical Alarm

Alarm will sound continually accompanied by the red
warning light. The tractor must be stopped
immeadiately. The alarm will sound until the fault is
corrected or the engine switched off.

Non Critical Alarm

A 5 second continuous alarm will be accompanied by
the amber warning light. A failure or error has
occurred but the operator may continue work. The
fault should be rectified as soon as possible.
WARNING and ADVISORY SYMBOLS
There are a number of warning/advisory symbols
that may appear in the Dot Matrix Display. The
symbols can be categorised into four main groups.
1. Warning. These symbols advise of a fault that is
critical to the operation of the tractor. Stop the
tractor as soon as possible, investigate the
cause and rectify the fault.
2. Maintenance. These symbols tell the operator
there is a concern relating to the basic functions
of the tractor, ie. low fuel, low coolant level etc.
3. System Fault. The system fault symbols relate
to an operational fault in one or more of the
tractors main components, either electrical or
mechanical. May be accompanied by a four digit
fault code. Consult your authorised dealer.
4. Advisory. The advisory symbols are not
detrimental to the operation of the tractor but
should not be ignored. Take appropriate action
where necessary.

the operator that a certain action is required. The
