6.17.2 Setting elevator rotational speed
The elevator rotational speed may be adjusted from the driver‘s seat.
elevator speed
Choose this function with R-Select.
+ Key = elevator faster
- Key = elevator slower
When adjusting the elevator rotational speed, the speed of the auger is automatically
adjusted synchronized with the elevator speed.
In case of normal lifting conditions, the elevator stage 5 is almost always the optimum
setting.
ADVICE
If the elevator cannot fully reach its rotational speed at the selected minimum lifting
rotational speed of the diesel engine, the diesel engine automatically increases its
rotational speed.
It is possible at a high set elevator rotational speed and high power requirement of the
bunker auger.
6.17.3 Elevator monitoring
The pressure of the elevator drive is constantly displayed and monitored on the R-
Touch. When exceeding a warning threshold determined by the driver, the warning
icon flashes on the R-Touch. Simultaneously, a warning buzzer sounds.
For details
See Page 138 .
If the elevator is abruptly blocked, all upstream drives and the driving power switch off
automatically. A warning icon appears on the R-Touch and warning buzzer sounds.
ADVICE
As the bunker auger's power requirement increases, so does the pressure of the ele-
vator monitoring.
