OPERATING CONTROLS
Debris Blower Commands
1. Use the PTO button to start and stop the
impeller. Start the engine and put the
throttle lever at low engine speed.
Engage the PTO lever and maintain
engaged. Make sure the debris blower is
turning in the right direction. If not, switch
the quick couplers. To stop the rotation,
disengage the PTO button.
2. Raise and lower the debris blower using
the hydraulic lift lever located on the
tractor. Pulling the lever backward raises
the debris blower, pushing the lever
forward lowers the debris blower.
3. Control brush speed with the RPM that
controls the debris ejection power.
Debris Blower Utilisation
1. A debris blower purpose s to displace rather light
debris to a variable distance according to the
impeller speed. For heavy debris, it is
recommended using some other equipment type
such as a rotary broom. For an optimum
performance, lower the debris blower as the 3
wheels touch the ground. Make sure the loader
control lever is in floating position to allow the
equipment to follow the ground variation and so
more debris to be blown.
2. For light debris, use a higher vehicle ground
speed. For heavier debris, use a reduced vehicle
ground speed. For small area, lower the tractor
motor speed to eject debris on a short distance.
For wider area, use higher speed.
Nozzle air ejection Orientation
Equipment air ejection can be done to the right or
the left. To change direction, move the orientation
arms on the debris blower. See decal on equipment
to check arm positions for right orientation.
WARNING: To avoid serious injuries:
never move the orientation arm when the debris
blower is running.
