ABSTRACT:
In an engine output condition informing system for a snow remover, the engine speed and the throttle position are detected, the output power rate OPrate of the engine is estimated based thereon, the output power condition of the engine is determined based on the estimated output power rate, and the operator is informed of the determined output power condition by the display (informing) device. With this, the output power condition of the engine can be accurately determined and the operator informed with a simple configuration, whereby the burden on the operator can be lightened. Also, it is possible to minimize situations in which the output power condition of the engine is overpowered and the power train of the engine or of the snow removal mechanism and travel mechanism is damaged, as well as situations in which the output power condition of the engine becomes underpowered, the snow remover is unable to perform, and the operating efficiency decreases.
