OPERATING PROCEDURE - SWEEP MODE

CAUTIONS:

The vehicle MUST be brought to a complete standstill, the handbrake 
applied and Neutral selected BEFORE Sweep Mode is selected.

1.

Stop the vehicle, release the foot throttle and apply handbrake.

2.

Engage NEUTRAL on the Forward/Reverse Lever.

3.

Ensure that the suction fan is OFF and turn the Key Switch to 

Position 1. The Sweep Mode indicator will illuminate (GREEN), 

confirming Sweep Mode (the sweep controls are now active).

4.

Press the

 symbol on the RDS Sweep Monitor, until engine RPM 

is displayed (page 20) and rotate the Engine Speed Control 

clockwise until the required engine speed is achieved (1380 rpm is 

the most efficient setting for normal sweeping duties.)
