Main Disconnect Switch
The main disconnect switch is located on the
outside of the right rear endframe. When turned
to OFF, the main disconnect switch locks out the
incoming electrical power to the unit.
Unless otherwise indicated, turn the main
disconnect switch to OFF before performing any
maintenance or repair work.
For more information on operating the main
disconnect switch, refer to the INSTALLATION
chapter, Installation Procedures section,
Electrical Connection procedure.
Safety Guards and Sensors
Safety guards cover the motor and other
moving parts inside unit. Doors cover the
endframes. These prevent fingers or hands from
coming into contact with moving parts. They also
serve to keep foreign objects from entering the
unit and damaging components.
Mass sensors at the inlet help protect operators
and keep foreign objects out of the unit by causing
the upper inlet arm to raise. Crossbeam sensors
automatically shut down the spreader/feeder
when triggered during machine operation.
