3.5 Skip Speed Remote Control
The skip speed remote control is used to temporar-
ily override the Truck Speed setting on the joystick
console and increase truck speed between dashed
painted lines to increase productivity while in Op-
erate Mode. Increasing skip speed not only saves
time by increasing the truck speed between lines
where removal is not required, it reduces wear
and tear on the high pressure blasting system
by increasing truck speed enough to leave blast-
ing pressure activated between the lines without
damaging the pavement.
To use the remote, rotate the Skip Speed dial
clockwise to the highest safe setting for the cur-
rent work environment. The setting is usually, but
not always, 100 on the dial. This sets the speed
the truck will accelerate to when the control is
activated (Skip Speed). The Dump Valve ON/OFF
switch is always in the ON position unless it is re-
quired to be turned OFF to shutdown high water
pressure water to the blastheads in an emergency
or other situations that may occur. With the control
set, begin blasting the dashed paint lines. Note
that the Dump Valve ON/OFF switch must be
in the ON position before the START button
on the joystick control will activate the high
pressure water supply to the blastheads.
When the blastheads reach the end of a painted
line, squeeze the trigger on the skip control.
Truck speed will increase to the speed preset on
the skip speed remote speed dial. Just before the
blastheads reach the next line, release the trigger.
The truck speed will immediately decrease to the
blasting operation speed preset on the joystick
Truck Speed dial.
