12 VOLT ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The following is a description of the 12V electrical system on the
Volu-Matic 200
machine, an electrical
schematic is included in the troubleshooting section.
Engine Models:
Power comes from the battery through the 20 amp circuit breaker to the master switch
6
. When the master
switch is turned on, electricity flows through the switch causing the light to illuminate while providing power to
the blower relay and remote control receptacle
7
. The emergency stop buttons
4
&
5
must be twisted out
(on) and the front guard closed against the safety switch
2
or the engine will not start. When the remote cord
switch
9
is moved toward the cord, power flows to the blower relay’s internal coil. This causes the normally
open contacts in the relay to close sending power to the blower clutch while also providing power to the
mechanism relay. When the remote switch is moved toward the end of the switch housing, power flows to the
internal coils of the blower and mechanism relays. This causes the normally open contacts in both relays to
close sending power to the respective clutches simultaneously.
PTO Models:
Power comes from the truck battery through the 20 amp circuit breaker to the master switch
6
. When the
master switch is turned on, electricity flows through the switch causing the light to illuminate while providing
power to the latching relay and blower relay. The emergency stop buttons
4
&
5
must be twisted out (on)
and the front guard closed against the safety switch
2
, pressing the reset button
3
energizes the latching
relay contacts to the closed position allowing power to flow to the remote control receptacle
7
. When the
remote cord switch
9
is moved toward the cord, power flows to the blower relay’s internal coil. This causes
the normally open contacts in the relay to close sending power to the blower clutch while also providing power
to the mechanism relay. When the remote switch is moved toward the end of the switch housing, power flows
to the internal coils of the blower and mechanism relays. This causes the normally open contacts in both relays
to close sending power to the respective clutches simultaneously.
At any time that an emergency stop button is pushed in (off) or the front guard is opened while the machine is
operating, power is de-energized on PTO models at the latching relay which opens the contacts. The engine
will stop on engine driven models. This will stop power flow to the remote control receptacle and relays which
will disengage the blower and mechanism clutches. You will have to twist the emergency stop button out (on)
and/or close the front guard and then push the reset button to re-energize the remote function.
If an emergency stop button is pushed in (off) or the front guard is opened while only the master switch is on
but the machine is not operating, the reset button will have to be pressed once the emergency button is
twisted out (on) or the front guard is closed to energize the latching relay for machine operation. This is also
true for any troubleshooting requirements you may encounter.
NOTE: Always turn the master switch off at the end of the job. Leaving the master switch on will drain
battery power. A battery low on power will cause the clutches to slip during operation or not engage at all.
