Overnight Heaters (optional)
The overnight heaters are designed to pre-heat, or maintain the temperature of the heat
transfer oil up to the capacity of the heating elements. This will decrease the amount of time
necessary to bring the materials up to the recommended application temperatures.
The burner is automatically disconnected from the system and the electric heating elements
are activated when the power cord is plugged in. The thermostats are set by the operator to
prevent overheating.
1. To Activate Overnight Heaters
a. Plug electrical cord into an outlet with a minimum 40 amp capacity and 240 volts.
b. Set thermostats to recommended temperature provided by the material manufacturer,
then turn on the heating control power switch. System operation is now automatic.
CAUTION: Do not exceed the material manufacturers recommended heating cycles or heat-
ing times (pot life).
Washdown Pump (optional)
The wash down pump is used to spray solutions on the shovel platform and your tools for
clean-up, and to reduce sticking of the asphalt material.
To reduce the risk of fire, the burner is automatically disconnected from the system when the
washdown selector switch is activated. However, the operator should verify that the burner is
actually off for increased safety, in case of a malfunction in the system.
WARNING: Washdown solutions may be extremely flammable, use caution and avoid spray-
ing solution near any hot components, sparks, or flame. DO NOT smoke while operating the
Washdown pump.
1. To Activate Washdown Pump
a. Place washdown selector switch in the "Washdown Pump" position.
b. Verify burner has extinguished.
c. Spray solution as needed. Avoid heated components, sparks, or flame.
