REVERTING TO NORMAL DRIVE MODE 2
If the vehicle is being returned to normal drive mode for a period of time
suffi
cient to warrant stopping the auxiliary engine, or it is intended to
stop the vehicle, proceed as follows:
1. Press the Master switch OFF t
o stop and raise all active sweeping
equipment. The Sweep Master LED will extinguish.
Cancel all active sweeping equipment by pressing all switches that are
illuminated by a red LED before switching

This will allow the auxiliary engine to revert to IDLE.
Before stopping the auxiliary engine allow it to run at IDLE speed for at least
two minutes to allow the turbo-charger to cool. Failure to comply will result
in p
remature failure of the turbo-charger bearings/oil seals.
If stopping the vehicle at the end of a sweeping run DO NOT remove the ignition key
until the auxil
iary engine has had sufficient IDLING time as removing the key will
close-down the CANbus panel, stopping the auxiliary engine.
The LCD screen will continue to display information relevant to the sweepers
operating mode even when the panel is not active.
3. After allowing the engine to idle for two to three minutes,
press the auxiliary engine STOP switch to shut down the unit.
Th
e red LED will illuminate while the switch is being pressed
