On Funk units, moving the lever away from the engine engages the clutch.

smooth manner. .Moving the clutch handle too slowly will cause slippage and wear, while
moving it too fast will cause quick engagement and possible damage to the power take-
off, engine or driven equipment.
INSTRUMENTS
Oil Pressure Gauge
The oil pressure gauge registers the lubricating system pressure in pounds-per-
square-inch and should be frequently checked to ensure that the system is functioning
correctly. Normally the pressure registered by the gauge should remain constant for a
given engine speed (see Specifications).
Should the pressure fluctuate or drop, stop the engine and find the cause. Do not
operate the engine at lower than normal oil pressures.
This instrument registers the charging current which is being passed to the
battery by the alternator. It also registers a discharge equivalent to the amount of current
being used by the electrical equipment when the alternator is not charging.
