Indicator Lights
The EB12D generator is equipped with four indicator lights that monitor
three engine functions and the generator operation, All four lights come on
when the engine switch is turned from the OFF position to the ON posi-
tion. This allows the operator to check the bulbs of each indicator light.
The four lights will go out after 4 seconds with the engine switch left in the
ON position. The lights will go out if the engine switch is turned to the
start position before 4 seconds.
Oil Pressure Indicator Light
Lights when the engine oil level is low or the engine lubrication system is
not working properly. The engine will stop automatically when the light
comes on.
