Merlin and Magnum Hydrostatic Operating Instructions
Suction fan boost setting
When required, boost settings are available for the suction fan. This increases fan speed and is used when sweeping heavy material. To operate the fan at
the Boost settings, carry out the following procedure:
1. Press the suction fan ‘Boost’ switch . See Page 12.
2. Adjust engine speed as necessary, by means of the controls on the main panel, until the fan is at the desired rpm using the lowest engine
speed to achieve this.
Climbing Gradients
When sweeping up hill it might be necessary to increase engine speed to maintain sweeping performance. It is advisable to do this before you start to climb
the hill.
The amount of increase will depend on a range of variable factors:
(a) The individual characteristics of the engine.
(b) The current hopper load.
(c) The current sweeping load (e.g. light or heavy material).
(d) The angle of the gradient.
To increase engine speed, do one of the following:
• Use the engine speed-setting controls . This method is most useful when a prolonged increase in engine speed is required.
• Use the throttle pedal. To temporarily over-ride the pre-set engine speed (this method is more convenient for brief increases in engine speed as
engine speed will automatically revert to the pre-set value when the throttle pedal is returned to its previous position).
