2.11 Console Switch Panel
All functions and features of the waterblasting
system are activated by labeled rocker switches
on the console switch panel in the cab. A green
LED light in each switch illuminates to indicate
the circuit activated by the switch is ON. The PTO
switch activates the circuits for other waterblasting
function switches in the panel and shifts the OMNI
gear box between Drive Mode and Operate Mode.
The PTO switch circuit is energized by the chassis
ignition switch. Power is not available to most
other waterblasting electrical circuits until the PTO
switch is activated.
Refer to the Operation section of this manual
for instructions on operating the vehicle and
waterblasting equipment in Operate Mode.
The following is a description of the console
switch functions and other console compo-
nents and indicator lights:
PTO Switch
• Energizes the circuits for other waterblasting
function rocker switches on the console switch
panel.
• Activates the cooling fans in the hydraulic oil
cooler.
• Switches the OMSI gearbox between Drive
Mode and Operation Mode.
• Activates the PTO hour meter to record
waterblasting equipment operating time.
• Energizes the oil pressure gauge for the OMSI
gearbox.
• Selects Operate Mode in the engine ECM
which changes engine operating parameters
to the proper settings for the operation of
the waterblasting equipment. Note that some
chassis manufacturers provide a separate
dash mounted PTO switch which eliminates
the switch in the console.
NOTICE:
THE TRUCK IGNITION SWITCH AND THE CONSOLE
PTO SWITCH MUST BE ON TO PROVIDE ELECTRICAL
POWER TO OTHER WATERBLASTING FUNCTION
SWITCHES IN THE CONSOLE. THE CAMERA, WORK
LIGHT, STROBE LIGHT AND ACCESSORY SWITCHES
ARE ALWAYS ACTIVATED.
