Operating the Spreader
(continued)
WARNING PROTECTION
• If audible beeping occurs, read display to identify problem. If display reads “OL” (overload) or “OH” (overheat) shut
controller down and carefully clear jammed auger. If display reads “E1“ this means there is a dead short in system. Do
not use until problem is corrected. If display reads “E 0” this means that the motor is not getting any power. Check all
connections. If display reads “LB” the vehicle battery is extremely low (possibly caused by a poor or corroded
connection) and could damage the system. Also check all other connections as well as this can be a sign of a poor
connection elsewhere in the system.
• If there are any problems while operating the spreader, refer to Troubleshooting Guide.
AUTO-REVERSE “AR” FUNCTION
• If your controller displays “OL” this could indicate a jammed auger.
• To engage the Auto-Reverse “AR” function:
Step 1: Shut the Main Power Switch OFF for 3 seconds.
Step 2: Turn the Main Power Switch ON. When the machine starts back up the “AR” sequence will automatically start
and the auger will reverse for several rotations to clear the jam.
• After a pause of several moments, the auger will automatically return to correct rotation.
• If the jam is still not cleared, the controller will again display “OL”.
• You may repeat Steps 1 & 2 for a second and third time.
• If after the third try the controller displays “OL” — you must extract the material that is causing the problem.
• Follow all warning directions when clearing jams.
