manual for limit switch adjustment.
If the motor is not on or if the pressure switch is not activated then the Hydraulic Motor

following the defaults restore. The Total Material Ran through the machine with the

If the security is turned on, the password will be required to change the stored coil
lengths and colors or to reset the Total Material Ran value (totalizer). If security is turned
off, no password is needed to make changes to these values. With security turned off the
Security screen displays the current password which can be changed by entering a new
password and pressing the enter button. Once this is done, the new password will be
needed to make any changes to the coil lengths and colors or to reset the Total Material
Ran.
