REMARK
When the engine is started, the battery voltage may sud-
denly drop depending on the temperature and the battery
condition. If this happens, the display on the machine mon-
itor may momentarily go out, but this does not indicate any
abnormality.
NOTICE
• After the engine starts, wait for the engine oil
pressure caution lamp to go out. Do not touch the
control levers or control pedal while the engine oil
pressure caution lamp is lit.
• If the engine oil pressure caution lamp does not
go out even after 4 to 5 seconds have passed,
stop the engine immediately. Check the oil level,
check for leakage of oil, and take the necessary
action.
METHOD FOR STARTING ENGINE IN COLD WEATHER
• Start the engine only while sitting down in the operator's seat.
• Do not attempt to start the engine by short-circuiting the engine starting circuit.
Doing so may cause a serious personal injury or fire.
• Check that there are no persons or obstacles in the surrounding area, then sound the horn and start
the engine.
• Exhaust gas is toxic.
When starting the engine in confined spaces, be particularly careful to ensure good ventilation.
• Keep the engine hood and covers closed during operation unless you are checking the machine.
