OPERATING IN SWEEP MODE
REFER TO THE HEALTH & SAFETY INFORMATION ON Page 3
STARTING THE AUXILIARY ENGINE
ALWAYS ensure that the control panel is OFF before starting the auxiliary engine.
When the vehicle’s ignition is turned on the following events occur:
CANbus runs a number of system checks to confirm that all the control
nodes are present and functioning correctly. The result of this check
can be seen briefly in the form of an appropriate number of ‘
+
’ or ‘
–
’
symbols that appear along the lower display line on the LCD screen. A
‘
+
’ symbol indicates that a node has passed and a ‘
–
’ symbol
indicates that a node has failed to respond as expected.
Consequently, a display line such as ‘
+ + –
’ would indicate that node 3
has failed (if a failure occurs, report the event to your supervisor). The
LCD then displays the following auxiliary engine status information:
• Top Line Alternates - Engine Speed.
• Bottom Line - Water Temp.
The auxiliary engine pre-heating cycle starts automatically. The red
LED on the HEATERS switch will illuminate briefly accompanied by and
audible ‘beep’ to denote that the heating cycle is complete.
If the vehicle has been driven to the work site immediately prior to sweeping,
without the auxiliary engine operating, it will be necessary to start the pre-
heaters manually (Step 1) otherwise go to STEP 2.
