A-Coolant Temperature Gauge

B-Oil Pressure Indicator
C-Charging System Indicator

D-Air Restriction Indicator

E-Fuel Level Gauge

IMPORTANT: If charging system or oil pressure indicators (C or B) fail to go out, or temperature gauge (A) indicates hot, stop engine and determine the cause.

The needle on the temperature gauge rises as engine warms up. If needle reaches red zone, stop engine and determine the cause.

Check coolant level in recovery tank and radiator when engine cools. Also check grille, radiator and radiator screen for plugging. Check fan belt tension. If problem is not corrected, see your John Deere dealer.

Oil pressure indicator will light if engine oil pressure is low. Indicator should light when key is turned to RUN position and go out when engine starts.

IMPORTANT: NEVER operate engine without sufficient oil pressure. If indicator stays lit for longer than five seconds under normal operating conditions, stop engine and check for cause.

If low oil level is not the problem, see your John Deere dealer.

Charging system indicator will light when alternator output is low. Indicator should light when key is turned to RUN position, and go out when engine starts.

If indicator stays lit for longer than five seconds in normal operation, stop engine and check for cause. If loose or broken fan belt is not the cause, see your John Deere dealer.
