Position Control Panel
The control panel(s) and steering wheel(s) can be
positioned for operator comfort and efciency on the
job site. The covered control panel(s) can be moved
completely forward and locked into place using the
locking pin (Figure 4-3) when not in use.

To position the control panel:
1. Close the control panel cover.
2. Remove the locking pin attached to the control
panel column from the locking pin hole.
3. Move control panel forward.
4. Insert locking pin back into locking pin hole.
5. Remove locking pin and pull panel back into its
operational position.
ALWAYS check to ensure the locking
pin is securely in place prior to operation.
Extend/Retract Operator Station
A unique and convenient feature of the CSV Variable
Width Chip Spreader is the ability to hydraulically extend
and retract the operator station platform(s). Extending
the operator platform is an additional safety factor,
making it easier to see in either direction while this
large industrial machine is moving, along with providing
an unrestricted view for accurate chip spreading. The
platform extends 15 inches (38.1 cm).

Extending and retracting the operator station platform is
accomplished by using the left and right arrows on the
DP710 digital display unit in the Settings screen. (Page

Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)
After-Treatment System
The CSV Variable Width Chip Spreader is equipped
with a DEF after treatment system that treats post-
combustion exhaust gases prior to tailpipe emission.
This system allows greater engine power, higher
torque and fuel economy while decreasing exhaust
pollution. Trapped soot and undesired combustion
gas is periodically burned off through a regeneration
process, activated by the engine’s ECU (Engine Control
Unit). This “particulate matter” is the black smoke, or
soot, that comes out of the exhaust pipe, which causes
air pollution.
The diesel exhaust after-treatment system comprises
of high-efciency ltration of these contaminates
and sensors that monitor soot levels and prompt
the regeneration process. With this higher ltration
efciency, engine combustion increases power density
and lowers fuel consumption.
The DEF system (Pages 5-15) is an important factor in
operating the machine. Keeping the DEF tank lled is
critical to engine operation. (Figure 4-5)
You may hear a pumping sound from underneath the
vehicle after turning off the ignition key, which is a
normal purging of any unused DEF from the system
back into the DEF tank.
