PTO
(Power Take Off) Turns green when engaged or on.
GPM
Asphalt pump speed is measured in Gallons Per Minute. When ever the
pump is turning forward or reverse, manually or in CRC, GPM is
indicated. A sensor mounted in the hydraulic motor picks up the pump
speed.
Width
A Total of the number of Spray Valves selected on using the Taper Cut
Switches or selecting the Spray Valve Switches.
Nozzle Size
A calculator that determines the optimal nozzle size based on the
indicated GSY and FPM. Use this reference to operate within the optimal
range of the nozzles currently mounted in the spray bar by speeding up or
slowing down. If the optimal speed for the current nozzles doesn’t suit,
then change nozzles. Nozzles only affect spread Rate when you spread to
fast and the increased bar pressure causes bypass. For instance, if you are
using #2 nozzles and while spraying the Nozzle Size indicator reads 3 or 4,
you are going to fast. Either slow down or change nozzles. Going too slow
only affects the nozzles ability to fan properly resulting in streaking. If
streaking is a problem, reduce nozzle size.
Taper Cut
The center of the display shows the current on or off status of the
Taper Cut selection. Solid blocks indicate ON, Hollow blocks indicate OFF.
The display only represents the Taper Cut Switch selection. It does not
represent the Spray Valve Switches on the Console. Both the Taper Cut
AND the Spray Valve Switches have to be ON for any given valve to spray.
The Width always calculates the total number ON. Use the Taper
switches on the Console to select and de-select.
