C - Battery Charging Indicator

D - Engine Air Cleaner Restriction Indicator

E - Fuel Level Gauge

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

Coolant Temperature Gauge (A)

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.

Engine Information Indicator (B)

If engine information indicator remains after starting engine, stop engine immediately.

Check engine oil level, engine oil cooler, and engine oil filter. If low oil level is not the problem, see your John Deere dealer.

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.

Battery Charging Indicator (C)

Battery charging 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.

Air Restriction Indicator (D)

Air restriction indicator will light if air cleaner becomes plugged. Service air cleaner as soon as possible. Indicator should light momentarily when key is turned to START position and go off when engine starts.

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 Maintenance—Fuel System section.)
