Komatsu — Caution Monitors

DETAILED CONTROLS AND GAUGES OPERATION Charge Level Monitor This monitor (1) flashes if the battery is not being properly charged when the engine is running. If it flashes, check the V-belt for looseness. If any abnormality is found, take the action given in “OTHER TROUBLE (3-129)“. REMARK When the starting switch is at ON, the lamp stays lighted up.
