Engine Operating Guidelines
DPSG,RG34710,108 –19–08JAN02–2/2
The reset button has to be held in when starting the
engine. The button allows the safety switch to override the
shut-down circuits until safe engine oil pressure is
maintained. Once engine oil pressure is within
specifications, the safety switch will latch and the reset
button can be released.
F—Fuse Holder - Contains 14 amp fuse.
G—Ammeter - The ammeter indicates the rate of charge
(+) or discharge (—) of the battery. When the engine is
first started, the ammeter will usually indicate a charge
rate of approximately 30 amps. After a short period of
operation, the ammeter needle will point slightly to the
right of “0”, indicating the charging system is operating
normally. A problem with the charging system is indicated
if the ammeter needle points to the left of “0” during
engine operation.
H—Hour Meter - The hour meter operates when the
engine is operating, or when the reset button is manually
held in while the key switch is in the ON position. The
accumulated hours are displayed in hours and tenths of
hours. On some panels, the hourmeter may be separate
from the tachometer.
I—Hand Throttle - The hand throttle is used to manually
control engine speed. If the hand throttle is electronic (as
shown), turn the knob clockwise or counterclockwise to
change engine speed. If the hand throttle is mechanical
(not shown), turning the handle, either clockwise or
counterclockwise, will lock the throttle position. Turn the
handle half way between the two lock positions to unlock
the throttle.
J—Tachometer Binary Code - The tachometer is
calibrated to the number of flywheel gear teeth read. The
dip switch to set the binary code is located in back of
tachometer and must be set at “10110011” to operate at
30 pulses per revolution.
