I-4. General Description of Model 350 Power Unit
The Model 100 Wick drain machine sprocket drives run off the APE Model 350 power unit. The engine
is mounted to a tubular frame that also serves as a diesel fuel tank. A sheet metal and tube frame covers
the engine and is equipped with locking doors for protection from the environment. Equipment
attached to the Power Unit can be controlled from the Main Control Panel (located behind one of the
doors), the 50 foot Pendant switch, or the Radio Control (400 ft. radius).
WARNING:
Clean with ether or a clean rag before installing quick disconnects. Make sure you
seat the quick disconnect fittings all the way tight. Failure to tighten the quick disconnects will
stop the flow of oil and will prevent the vibro from operating. Failure to tighten the clamp fittings
completely tight will cause the jaws to either not open or not close. If this happens you may have
to crack the fitting and bleed off the pressure to release the quick dis-connects.
