A - Coolant Temperature Gauge

B - Oil Pressure Indicator

C - Air Restriction Indicator

D - Charging System Indicator

E - Fuel Level Gauge

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

Coolant Temperature Gauge (A)

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

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

Oil Pressure Indicator (B)

Oil pressure indicator lights glows if engine oil pressure is low. Indicator should glow 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 the normal operating conditions, stop engine and check for cause.

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

Air Restriction Indicator (C)

Air restriction indicator lights if air cleaner becomes plugged. Service air cleaner as soon as possible. (See procedure in Service—250 Hours section.)

Charging System Indicator (D)

Charging system indicator lights 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 5 sec. in normal operation, stop engine and check for cause. If loose or broken fan belt is not the cause, see your John Deere dealer.

Fuel Level Gauge (E)

Stop to refuel before fuel gauge reaches empty mark.

IMPORTANT: Use diesel fuel only. See Fuel, Lubricants and Coolant section for fuel specifications.

Should tractor run out of fuel and not start in several tries, air must be bled from fuel system. (See Bleed Fuel System in Service section.)
