The main drive belt guard is placed to ensure safety when starting or stopping the engine and also for
general maintenance that may require the engine to be running while the machine is off. The main drive belt
guard on PTO models is to ensure safety when the machine is off, but the PTO is still engaged on the truck.
There are two emergency stop buttons A & B that will completely shut the machine down. Either red
button will stop all machine mechanisms when pushed in (off) overriding all other controls. If the
mechanisms do not shut off or stop when either button is pushed, request that maintenance be performed
on the safety interlocks.
The emergency stop buttons must be pulled out (on) for normal operation.
Knowledge of the location and function of these emergency stops is emphasized.
These buttons should be used for any of the following type of emergencies:
– unauthorized individual getting too close to the machine.
– objects falling into machine.
– a machine component breaks.
– a material hose becomes disconnected.
– anything requiring immediate stopping of the machine.
You will have to push the reset button 3 in order to restart the machine after the emergency stop buttons
are pulled back out (on) for machine operation. If any safety switch interlock should become damaged,
replace it; keep your
Volu-Matic 500 machine safe.
During machine operation, always turn off the “rocker type” master switch 4 (light indicates switch is on),
and unplug the remote cord from the receptacle 5 before removing any guards for any reason! The material
conditioning slide gate is adjustable from outside the machine using adjustment handle 6 .
During machine operation, always stand on the floor to deposit material into the hopper. Under no
circumstances should your hand, arm, stick, or broom be used to move or force feed material down into the
hopper. The
Volu-Matic 500
machine is a self-feeding design requiring no outside assistance for smooth flow.
Operators should wear hearing protection if the machine noise makes them uncomfortable or noise level
exceeds permissible exposure limits. CTMW recommends that the operator wear an “approved” dust mask
or respirator for their protection. Safety features are incorporated into the
Volu-Matic 500
machine to
protect everyone from serious injury. Operate your machine according to the outlined instructions in this
manual with all safety features in place and working properly. Operating the machine in an unsafe manner
can result in serious injury.
