Fuel Level (4). This gage indicates the amount of fuel in the fuel tank. If the gage needle is in the red zone, the fuel tank
is low on fuel. Refuel the machine as soon as possible.
Transmission Oil Temperature (5). This gage indicates excessive transmission oil temperature. If the gage needle is in
5.
the red area, reduce the load on the machine. If the gage needle is in the red area and if the action light (see callout 15 on
the next page) continues to flash after approximately 5 minutes, stop the machine and investigate the cause of the fault.
Refer to Troubleshooting Introduction (WP 0008 00).
Coolant Temperature (6). This gage indicates excessive coolant temperature. If the gage needle is in the red area, stop
6.
the machine and investigate the cause of the fault. Refer to Troubleshooting Introduction (WP 0008 00).
Hydraulic Oil Temperature (7). This gage indicates excessive hydraulic oil temperature. If the gage needle is in the
7.
red area, reduce the load on the system. If the gage needle remains in the red area, stop the machine and investigate the
cause of the fault. Refer to Troubleshooting Introduction (WP 0008 00).
Front Dash Indicators
