PTO CONTROLS
Always engage the PTO at a low idle before increasing engine speed to the truck manufacturer’s
recommended range. Use the truck mounted cruise control and lock to set the PTO speed on the truck
mounted tachometer. Always decrease the idle speed before disengaging the PTO. Make sure that the panel
mounted tachometer
21
on the machine runs at
1050 rpm
. CTMW marks and documents the truck idle
speed at installation so that the operator knows where to set the truck mounted throttle.
WARNING: always operate your machine with the truck sitting on a level surface. Operating the machine
when the truck is not level will lead to failure of some machine components. The oil level in the blower,
transmission, and gearbox, may not lubricate internal parts properly when the truck is sitting on an incline.
OPEN BLOW
During open blow operation, you will need the
hopper extension sides
23
in order to fully utilize
the expanded hopper area. The extension back
24
connects to the sides. Place the sides over
the weld studs on the machine top frame and bolt
to the extension back. Use the wing nuts supplied
with
NEW
delivered machines to hold in place.
SIDEWALL
During sidewall spray operation, you will need
to mount the 4 inch hose to the vacuum inlet.
The vacuum housing transition exit
17
will be
connected to the 6 inch elbow tube that will
route all the recovery of excess sprayed fibers
to the material deceleration box
25
.
HOSE
Connect hose for open blow or sidewall operations
with supplied reducers to the feeder outlet
20
.
Make sure to use recommended hose size and type
as specified in the table. Connect hose for vacuuming
to the front cover
7
by lifting the door
8
. If your
truck is not set up with double doors as illustrated
in the installation instructions, you will have to make
provisions for connecting the hose. In the following
drawing, a through-the-wall sleeve connection is shown.
Never connect the hose to the feeder outlet or vacuum
inlet cone creating a short radius bend in the hose, this
will result in excessive hose wear. A short radius bend
in the hose can also result in poor coverage, excessive airlock feeder wear, and/or plugged hoses for open blow
or sidewall operation. Additionally, high feed rates for open blow may require a 25' to 50' length of 4" diameter
hose at the outlet connection if excessive high air pressure is experienced when using all 3-1/2" diameter hose.
