8. Pressure gauge - engine lubricating oil pressure,
should be at 300-500 kPa (3-5 kp/cm
during normal operation. At idling speed it should be
min. 150 kPa (1.5 kp/cm
not be run with excessively low oil pressure.
9. Starter button - pushing it engages the starter motor.
10. Temperature gauge engine coolant - During normal
operation the temperature should be between 65° and
95°C (149-203°F). The engine must not be run for
more than a few seconds if the temperature is
excessive.
11. Rudder indicator - indicates the position of the rudder.
The middle position of the needle indicates the rudder
in neutral.
12. Push - pull switches - for extra lighting. (Max. load 5A
per switch).
13. Fuel gauge - indicates how much fuel there is in the
tank. F means full tank, E empty tank, but a small
amount of spare fuel (R) however, still remains.
14. Hour meter - registers the number of hours and minu-
tes the engine has been running.
The numbering on figs. 7 and 8 is similar. Flying Bridge instruments which have the same function as those on the
basic panel have been given the same numbers.
The engine can be stopped and (if it is warm) started from the Flying Bridge. On such occasions, the key on the lower in-
strument panel should be switched to the running position.
When the engine is cold, is should always be started from the lower control position and the air pre-heater (does not apply
to the TAMD60 engines) should be engaged before starting.
3. Stop button – pushing it in engages the stop solenoid
and the engine stops,
4. Revolution counter, engine speed – multiply the value
by 100.
6. Instrument lighting – indirect lighting of instruments
with switch pulled out.
9. Start button – pushing it in engages the starter motor.
12. Push-pull switches – for extra lighting (max. load 5A
per switch).

15. Pressure gauge - reverse gear oil pressure. The
pressure should be around the values given in
"Technical Data", pages 40 and 41.
16. Battery charging warning lamp - lights if the batteries
discharge.
17. Warning lamp - lights if the engine lubricating oil
pressure is too low.
18. Warning lamp - lights if the engine temperature
becomes excessive.
19. Push-pull switch - for extra lighting (max. load 5A)
20. Siren - engages automatically if the engine tempera-
ture becomes excessive or its oil pressure too low.
Either lamp 17 or 18 will light and indicate the type of
fault which has arisen.
21. Pressure gauge - for the turbo-compressor charging
pressure. Concerning the pressure, see "Technical
Data", page 40.
16. Battery charging warning lamp – lights up if the
batteries discharge.
17. Warning lamp – lights if the engine lubricating oil
pressure is too low.
18. Warning lamp – lights if the engine temperature
becomes excessive.
20. Siren – engages automatically if the engine tempera-
ture becomes excessive or its oil pressure too low.
Either one of lamps 17 or 18 also lights up and
indicates the type of fault which has arisen.
