Operating the Leak Detector
The leak detector alarm may sound for 1 of the
following reasons:
•
A leak of 118 to 177 ml (4 to 6 oz) has occurred.
•
The fluid level in the main reservoir is reduced by
118 to 177 ml (4 to 6 oz) due to contraction of the
fluid by cooling.
If the alarm sounds, turn off the machine as quickly as
possible and inspect it for leaks. If the alarm sounds
while operating on a green, drive off the green first.
Determine the source of the leak and repair it before
continuing operation.
If you do not find a leak and suspect a false alarm,
move the ignition switch to the O
the machine to stand for 1 to 2 minutes to allow the
fluid levels to stabilize. Then start the machine and

operate it in a non-sensitive area to confirm that no

False alarms, due to fluid contraction, may be caused
by extended idling of the machine after normal
operation. A false alarm may also occur if you work
the machine at a reduced workload after an extended
period of a heavier workload. To avoid false alarms,
turn the machine off rather than idling for extended
periods.
