HYDRAULIC ACCESSORY TOOL OPERATION
To control an accessory tool during operation, press the Rate Increase/
Decrease buttons on the Operator Switch Module to increase and decrease
the hydraulic flow. The PWM signal percentage sent to the hydraulic valve
displays in the channel window.
Accessory tools shut off when:
– Ground speed reaches zero
– or the Auto On/Off switch is turned off.
An increase in ground speed activates the tool to the previous PWM
percentage.
The control channel is set to Manual without Feedback for this feature.
Refer to Granular Configuration Setup (F2).
