SECTION 2 - OPERATION
2-33
Programming the “Service Alert Indicators”
During normal tractor operation, the hour meter will
reach preprogrammed service intervals.
This causes the word “SERVICE,” 1, to flash
whenever the key is on if service is due. The symbol
will flash for the next 10 hours of operation, or until the
specific service is completed and the display is reset.
The operator can program 1, 2 or no Service Alert
Indicators into the lower selectable LCD.
Example: The operator wants the hour meter to
signal for minor service every 50 hours and major
service to be performed every 300 hours.

The letter “I,” 1, and the 3-digit number, 2, in the
display corresponds to the “next service due” interval
previously entered into the memory. If “I_ 025” is
displayed, the hour meter will signal the operator
every 25 hours that service is due. A “I_000”
programmed into the display will disable the “Service
Alert Indicator.”
The left-hand digit of the display will be flashing. If the
digit is already reading “0,” there is no need to change
it. Touch the DIGIT SELECT switch, 3, to select the
next digit to the right, which will flash.

Each touch of the DIGIT SET switch, 6, will increase
the value of the flashing digit, 1, by one. When the
digit reaches “5”, touch the DIGIT SELECT switch, 5,
which will cause the next digit, 2, in the display to
flash. Change the value of this digit, if necessary,
using the DIGIT SET switch, 6, as previously
described until it reaches “0.”
With “1-050” displayed, touch the SET UP/SELECT
switch, 4. The Service Alert Indicator II can now be
programmed for the 300- hour service interval.
Every 50 hours of tractor operation the word
“SERVICE” will flash when the key is on. The display
will continue to flash until the START/STOP, RESET
switch, 3, is used to cancel the flashing display after
reentering the Service Alert programming mode.
