Engine Warning Light

The engine warning light operates with the ENFO IV unit and illuminates to
alert the operator of an engine related problem.

Hour Meter

The hour meter shows the operating time of the engine to assist with proper
service intervals.

Fuel Gauge

The fuel gauge shows about how much fuel is in the tank. The gauge reads
“E” when you first turn the ignition on. Then after a few seconds, it displays
the proper fuel level.

Engine Throttle

The standard vernier throttle adjusts engine speed to minimize changes of
pressure when volumes of water are changed. Vernier throttles are turned
counterclockwise (CCW) to INCREASE engine speed. See manufacturer’s
separate manual provided for additional information.

Primer Valve Control

The primer open/close unit is a combination valve and switch. Pulling the
handle out OPENS the valve and energizes the primer motor(s). Pushing
the handle in de-energizes the motor(s) and CLOSES the valve.

Note: Hale also offers units with a primer push button and an automatic prime
valve.

Engine OFF / RUN / START Switch

This is a three-position switch that starts and shuts-down the diesel engine.
When the engine starts, the switch returns to the RUN position and remains
in this position while the engine is running. The OFF position STOPS the
engine.

Engine Shut-Down Override Push Button

Skid and trailers are available with an automatic engine shut-down should
LOW oil pressure or HIGH coolant temperature develop.

When this occurs, the shut-down is overridden by pressing the engine shut-
down override push button while cranking the engine. DO NOT release the
button until oil pressure builds and reads on the gauge or the engine shuts-
down again.
