Travel (rewind) speed adjustment
The travel speed of an engine drive machine is determined by the engine R.P.M. which is adjusted by the
engine throttle.
On units with standard slow speed drive train configuration 3600 engine R.P.M. produces a *average re-
wind top speed of approximately 15 inches per minute.(75 f.p.h.)
Adjust engine speed to achieve desired rewind speed, Minimum engine recommended speed of 1800
R.P.M. produces average rewind speed of approximately 7 inches per minute.(37.5 f.p.h.)
On units with standard high speed drive train configuration, 3600 engine R.P.M. produces an *average re-
wind top speed of approximately 120 inches per minute, with the average low rewind speed being 60 inch-
es per minute.
* NOTE
-
Average rewind speed is the rate of tube re
-
wind at mid point of the run when the spool is approx-
imately half full.
Speeds other than standard can be achieved, consult factory for recommendation.
Recommended engine speed for sustained operation is 1800 to 3600 R.P.M.
