OPERATION
Open Delivery
Electric Cord Positioning
The following instructions describe a basic method of positioning the electric cord for open delivery depending
on direction of machine movement and position of power pedestals as the machine moves across the field.
1. Connect electric cord:
(a) Make sure the power pedestal disconnect is
in the OFF position.
(b) Position the electric cord between the cart
wheel tracks. To prevent interference be-
tween the electric cord and cart tires, bury
the electric cord in the area where interfer-
ence will occur or when applicable. See
Figure 67-1.
(c) Connect the electric cord to the power ped-
estal.
(d) When ready, switch the power pedestal dis-
connect switch into the ON position.
2. Follow the instructions for Open Delivery Cord
Drag Start Up.
Then, at the machine/control panel:
(a) Set the direction of travel.
(b) Set the percentage timer to the desired ap-
plication rate or speed.
(c) If applicable set the Auto Reverse/Auto Stop
control as desired.
3. When ready, start the machine. The machine
should start and run in the desired direction and
auto reverse or stop at the end of field stop post
which was set for the length of the electric cord.
4. As the machine approaches the end of field stop
post, Stop the machine and close the water shut off valve on the riser if applicable.
5. Move the electric cord:
(a) Make sure the power pedestal disconnect is in the OFF position.
(b) Disconnect the electric cord from the power pedestal.
(c) Position the electric cord far enough away from the hose, so that the hose will not drag over it. To prevent
interference between the electric cord, cart tires and hose, bury the electric cord in the area where in-
terference will occur or when applicable, position the electric cord over the top of hose. See Figure 67-1.
(d) Make sure the second power pedestal disconnect is in the OFF position.
(e) Connect the electric cord to the second power pedestal.
(f) When ready, switch the second power pedestal disconnect switch into the ON position.
6. At the machine/control panel:
(a) Select the original direction of travel.
(b) Set the percentage timer to the desired application rate or speed.
(c) If applicable set the Auto Reverse/Auto Stop control as desired.
