Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge on the control panel indicates
engine coolant temperature level during machine op-
eration.Thechangingresistanceoftheenginetempera-
ture sender signals the temperature gauge.
The temperature gauge should display the first green
segment when the ignition switch is turned to RUN. The
first yellow segment on the gauge should display when
engine coolant temperature is approximately 212

(100
