PACKER CONTROL STATIONS
There could be as many as three control stations
(figure #3.7) for the packer system. The right-
hand side station, which is standard, the cab
and the left-hand side stations, which are
optional: See selector switch.
3.2.3
EMERGENCY STOP CONTROLS
The emergency stop buttons (figure #3.7) will
stop the packing ram from moving in any
direction. Hitting any of these switches (there
is one per station) will have the same effect.
The ram will stop and all control joysticks will
be inoperable. The red buttons have to be
manually pulled back to reactivate the packing
system.
3.2.4
START CYCLE CONTROL
The green buttons activate the packing ram for
one complete cycle (when the selector switch
is in proper position). A complete cycle takes
about 14 seconds with the speed up system
engaged (1500 RPM). The speed up system is
automatically activated when using that
function (transmission has to be in neutral an
speed up inhibitor "ON").

RETRACTION CONTROL
The yellow button will retract the packing ram
(when the selector switch is in the proper
position). This control is useful when the body
is almost full and manual retraction is necessary
because the ram will not move forward and
cannot complete a normal cycle.
3.2.6
ENGINE SPEED UP CONTROL
This function allows the operator to manually
engage the engine speed up. This can be useful
when operating the tailgate, the hoist and also
the crusher panel. There is one switch per
packer control station. You must select the
proper control station to enable desire fast idle
switch. The fast idle switch will engage when:
– Control station properly selected
– Transmission to "NEUTRAL"
– Fast idle switch "ON"
– Speed up inhibitor switch "ON"
3.2.7
MULTI-CYCLE
This function allows the packing ram to cycle
until the preset amount of cycles (2 to 8, 3 is
the standard) is reached or until a red button is
pushed or the multi-cycle switch is turned off.
