Operation
Diesel engine
Machine drive On/Off
When adjusting the engine speed manually, once the machine drive has been
switched on, the diesel engine speed is automatically adjusted to the value that was
set before the machine drive was switched off for the last time.
The diesel engine speed limits the possible speed of the machine drives.
Example: If the speed of the truck conveyor is set to stage 10, but the diesel engine
only runs at 1,200 rpm during loading, the speed of stage 10 will not be reached. Fuel-
saving loading is possible despite the speed stage of the truck conveyor being set too
high, as the maximum flow volume of the pump limits the speed of the truck conveyor.
During automotive loading, the machine drive set at the fastest speed determines the
speed of the diesel engine.
Example: If the speed of the truck conveyor is set to stage 10, the diesel engine runs
at high speed during loading, as it has to reach the speed of stage 10. Fuel-saving
loading is not possible if the stage (speed) is set too high.
Automotive loading works great when ALL six machine drives are set to actually
required stage (speed).
After switching off of the machine drive, the engine speed is automatically reduced to
idling speed (exception "After-loading" See Page 277).
