The Ultimate Ice Resurfacer 45
Disconnection of the Wash Water Line
Proceed in the following order to disconnect the water hose from the ice resurfacer:
1. Turn the selector switch to the OFF position.
2. Pull the plug out of the socket.
3. Disconnect the hose from the ice resurface.
This procedure prevents the solenoid valve from opening before the water hose is connected
to the machine when the next fill takes place, thus preventing water from pouring out in an
uncontrolled manner.
When the solenoid valve is open, a pressure difference of at least 0.5 bar must prevail at the
valve to ensure safe and speedy switching of the pilot-controlled solenoid. A smaller valve
on a low-pressure supply pipe with a bigger cross-section therefore works better than a large
valve in a small pipe at low pressure!
5.6 Foot Pedals and Parking Brake
Another three controls that you will work with a lot are located in the foot well area of the ice
resurfacer:
Accelerator Pedal
The right foot pedal is the accelerator pedal and is used to control the driving speed of the
machine.
Initially press the foot pedal just a little to switch on the hydraulic motor for the power
steering. The more you press down on the pedal, the faster the OLYMPIA travels.
