  • Page 20 Equipment Program - Manuals Buff-n-Dry™ / TOP Series Two Solenoid valves, one for each retract, are recommended for 80 or more cars per hour. To adjust the operation of the brushes without air pressure you may adjust the position of the pillow block bearings.

  • Page 21: General Operation

    Equipment Program - Manuals Buff-n-Dry™ / TOP Series *GENERAL OPERATION* The brushes on the unit need to spin anytime the conveyor is in operation. Top Brush Operation Brush rotation starts and stops with a signal from the Customer supplied Controller system to the Customer's hydraulic power pack which drives the hydraulic motors on the brushes.
  • Page 22 Equipment Program - Manuals Buff-n-Dry™ / TOP Series As the rear of the vehicle approaches the brushes they individually gear themselves around the rear fenders so that each brush dries one half of the vehicle rear vertical surfaces. As the vehicle departs the wraparound brush area the brushes are fully extended toward the center of the wash tunnel ready to accept another vehicle.
