6. The moving heads will start and move in opposite directions. The cleaner head will
start to apply cleaner when signaled and not stop until the last squirt distance has
been reached. When the oil head reaches the right board edge proximity sensor, the
moving heads will reverse and begin to apply the first stream of oil.
7. When the oil head reaches the left board edge proximity sensor, the head motor will
reverse. At the very moment the moving oil head reaches the 7-pin side, the machine
should be entirely on the lane.
8. When the On Lane Sensor receives a signal from the arm, the 7-pin drive will turn off,
the whisker sensors will be disabled, the buffer will turn on at the programmed
distance and the main drive will remain on to continue moving the Walker forward.
After the Walker has traveled about 2 feet, the vacuum will turn on.
9. Additionally, the OLS sensor will start a clock to record the total amount of run time
and display it on the screen.
10. As the Walker 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.
11. As the Walker 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.
12. As the Walker continues to move forward, speeds will change and oil and cleaner will
continue to be dispensed to the lane as programmed. As the Walker approaches the
applied oil distance, the oil will turn off and the buffer will continue to buff oil onto
the lane.
13. When the end oil distance is reached the buffer brush will stop and rise up, then the
brush up switch 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.
14. When the end oil distance has been reached, the machine will shift into high speed
and continue to travel toward the pin deck. As the Walker 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 Walker will down shift to low speed to reduce its
momentum into the pin deck.
15. 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 (to raise the duster). The
