2. Platform Overload (If equipped)
Indicates the platform has been overloaded.
3. System Distress Indicator
The system distress indicator lights to signify an electri-
cal system fault.
The four likely causes of a system fault are:
a. The seven second enable time has been allowed to
lapse or a function was selected before depressing
the footswitch. The system reads this condition as a
fault, just as it would if the footswitch were jammed
in the depressed position or a function switch were
stuck in the on position. Re-depress the footswitch
to power the controls and extinguish the light.
b. The maximum power limit has been reached and
the machine is not moving. This could happen
when the machine is stuck or when attempting to
travel over rough terrain or on steep grades which
exceed the rated gradeability of the machine. This
condition is comparable to stalling the engine by
asking it to provide more power than it was
designed to do.
c. The batteries are nearly depleted, and should be
charged very soon to prevent having the machine
stop at an inconvenient place.
d. There is some other fault in one of the circuits. If so
determine the cause by counting the flash code, a
number of flashes followed by a pause followed by
another number of flashes, and refer to the service
manual.
