Kegel IKON Lane Machine Operation Manual page 23

7. As the machine travels forward down the lane the moving heads will continue
to operate applying oil and cleaner. The board counting proximity sensor
monitors the motion of the moving heads. If the motion is interrupted, a
MOVING HEAD TRAVEL error will be displayed.
8. As the machine travels down the lane, the lane distance sensor (LDS) is
counting inches traveled and is also monitoring the movement of the machine.
If travel is interrupted a FORWARD TRAVEL error will be displayed. The speed of
the machine is also being displayed on the screen.
9. As the machine continues to move forward, speeds will change and oil and
cleaner will continue to be dispensed to the lane as programmed. As the
machine approaches the applied oil distance, the oil will turn off and the buffer
will continue to buff oil onto the lane.
10. When the oil distance is reached the buffer brush will stop and rise up, then the
brush up switch's normally open contacts close. If the contacts do not close
there will be a BRUSH UP error displayed. If the brush up switch sticks closed
when it should be open it will give a BRUSH DOWN error.
11. When the oil distance has been reached the machine will shift into high speed
and continue to travel toward the pin deck. As the machine approaches the
pin deck the last squirt distance will turn off the cleaner pump and the moving
heads will park. At the same time, the machine will down shift to low speed to
reduce its momentum into the pin deck.
12. When the machine enters the pin deck, the duster wind-up motor will turn on at
its pre-determined distance and start to wind up the cloth and raise the. The
duster up switch's normally open contacts will close to turn off the duster wind-
up motor. If the contacts do not close there will be a DUSTER WINDUP error
displayed.
13. When the machine reaches its travel distance and comes to a stop, the
squeegee will proceed to lift up and stop when the squeegee up switch's
normally open contacts close. If the contacts do not close, a SQUEEGEE UP
error will be displayed.
14. The machine will then start traveling in reverse and stop after moving 4 inches.
The squeegee will lower and the machine will go forward again and stop, then
lift the squeegee. This function helps to remove drips off the squeegee blades.
15. The machine will now travel in reverse, turn the vacuum off, and run the
cleaner pump in reverse for 1 second to help reduce pressure on the cleaner
tip.
16. As the machine travels in reverse at high speed the lane distance sensor is
counting inches traveled and is also monitoring the movement of the machine.
If travel is interrupted, a REVERSE TRAVEL error will be displayed.
