D. Duster End Components
Descriptions are given when looking into this compartment from the front wall of the
LaneWalker. The following components are located under the lid on the duster end of the
LaneWalker:
·
LIFTING DUSTER ASSEMBLY
: Located nearest the operator across the duster
end is the patented DMR (Dual Motor Ratcheting) duster cloth assembly. The DMR
assembly operates by means of
two
duster motors: the first which unwinds cloth; and the
second which winds up used cloth onto the used core. This dual action simulates that of a
ratcheting duster, helping to eliminate dirt lines during a conditioning run. The system also
better controls cloth usage, and has no clutch mechanism to adjust.
The LaneWalker should ALWAYS be operated with duster cloth in the machine!
This will prevent excess dirt and dust build up on the wicking pads and the lane. Operating
without cloth will also cause unnecessary drag on the LaneWalker and its motors.
The LaneWalker can use DBA Red Edge Cloth #8443 or #8441.
Approximately 1-
1/2” to 1-3/4” of cloth is used per lane
depending on the distance of travel.
·
DUSTER UNWIND MOTOR
: Mounted on the far left hand side of the duster
assembly is the duster unwind motor. This motor supplies fresh duster cloth before the
LaneWalker travels down the lane.
·
DUSTER WIND-UP MOTOR
: Mounted on the far right hand side of the duster
assembly is the duster wind-up motor. This motor takes up the used cloth and lifts the
cushion roller off the lane.
·
PROGRAMMABLE COMPUTER
: Located near the center of the duster end is the
LaneWalker Programmable Computer (PC).
WARNING
: The PC contains a Lithium battery. When it is replaced, the old battery
should be discarded in accordance with local regulations.
·
DRIVE MOTOR
: On the left side of the duster end is the drive motor. This two-
speed motor drives the LaneWalker up and down the lane and onto the approach. The
drive motor also drives the transfer roller.
·
LANE-TO-LANE MOTOR
: Mounted on the outer right side of the duster end is the
lane-to-lane motor. This motor drives the LaneWalker on the approach from one lane to
the next.
