15 Hour Meter & LCD Service Minder
(If Equipped)
The hour meter & LCD service
minder will remind the operator
of maintenance intervals for
changing the engine oil, air filter
service, low engine and low battery warnings. When the key is
rotated out of the STOP position but is not in the START position,
the hour meter & LCD service minder will briefly display the
battery voltage, followed by the tractor's accumulated hours.
NOTE: When the ignition key is out of the STOP position the
hourglass symbol is illuminated/blinks to indicate it is
recording the hours of tractor operation, regardless of whether
the engine has been started.
CHANGE OIL
The LCD screen will alternate the letters "CHG", followed by "OIL",
followed by "SOON", followed by the meter's accumulated time.
"CHG/OIL/SOON/TIME" will alternate on the display for 7 minutes
after the meter reaches 50 hours. This oil service minder interval
will occur every 50 hours. Before the interval expires, change the
engine oil as instructed in the Engine Operator's Manual.
LOW OIL
NOTE: The low oil pressure function only works if the engine is
equipped with an oil pressure switch.
The LCD screen will alternate the letters "LO" followed by "OIL",
followed by the meter's accumulated time, which indicates
the engine has low oil pressure. This is common when starting
an engine. The indicator will remain active until the engine
sufficiently builds pressure after starting. If it remains on with
the engine at full speed, and after a few minutes of operation,
stop the tractor immediately and check the engine oil level and
add as instructed in the Engine Operator's Manual. If the oil
level is correct and the indicator persists, contact an authorized
service dealer.
LOW BATTERY
At startup, the battery voltage will briefly display, then changes
to accumulated hours. The letters "LO" followed by the letters
"BATT" will display, followed by the meter's accumulated time.
"LO/BATT/TIME" is displayed on the LCD when the voltage
drops below 11.5 volts. When this occurs, the battery is in need
of a charge or the engine's charging system is not generating
sufficient amperage. Charge the battery as instructed in the
Assembly section of this manual or have the charging system
checked by your local service dealer.
AIR FILTER SERVICE
The LCD screen will display the letters "CLN" followed by
the letters "AIR", followed by "FILT", followed by the meter's
accumulated time. "CLN/AIR/FILT/TIME" will alternate on the
display for 7 minutes after the meter reaches 25 hours. This air
filter service minder time interval will be every 25 hours. On
intervals that are common with oil service, the oil message will
be displayed first followed by the air filter message.
