CAUTION
In Quick Dump mode, the feed roll is exposed and can cause material to be thrown from
the rear of the machine, especially at higher floor speeds. Please avoid being near the
open gate at the rear of the machine. Failure to comply could reuslt in minor to moderate
personal injury.
4. With Floor ON activated, activate Material START to begin unloading material. The mate-
rial will pass through the feed roll housing and out the rear of the machine over the airlock,
which will not be turning.
5. The floor conveyor speed can be adjusted higher for faster unloading.
6. When finished, press the STOP button and close the control box lid using the four latches.
WARNING
Do not place hands down inside the airlock vanes to remove material. Failure to comply
could result in death or serious injury.
7. Close the rear access door securely using the clamps.
8. The Bark Blower should be run with the Floor OFF for a few seconds so the airlock has a
chance to clear itself before resuming normal operation. The Starting Procedure on page
11 will need to be followed again before remote operation can be used.
DUST CONTROL SYSTEM
The Dust Control System on the Bark Blower is helpful in reducing the amount of dust that can be
generated by blowing very dry materials. Water is pumped from the 75-gallon poly tank down to
a nozzle in the discharge pan. A metering valve on the discharge pan allows for varying amounts
of water to be sprayed into the mulch as it is blown from the machine. A pressure regulator set
for 30 psi (207 kPa) is mounted near the pump and sends any excess flow produced by the pump
through the recirculation hose and back into the tank. The Dust Control System is activated by
setting the Dust Control Switch to ON while the floor conveyor is operating.
The water pump has an internal thermal switch that will shut the pump off if it gets too hot. A
clogged nozzle, clogged pump inlet, or too high of a regulator pressure setting can all cause exces-
sive heat in the pump. If the pump shuts off frequently, make sure the water flow is not restricted
and the regulator is not set above 30 psi (207 kPa).
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Turn engine OFF and disconnect battery before servicing equipment. Failure to comply
could reuslt in minor to moderate personal injury. Failure to comply could also result in
product or property damage.
