Page 11: Field Set-Up And Operation
Low pressure operation can cause indexing problems. The hose indexing sys- tem of your Cadman traveller is set up to properly index the polyethylene hose onto the hose drum under most operating conditions. However, when operating at very low in- let pressures (110 PSI or less), the PE hose can flatten slightly causing the indexing system to appear to be either out of adjustment or not functioning properly. - Page 13 Repeat these steps for the other jack. CAUTION Never operate the machine with only one (1) stabilizer leg extended NOTE: 2250 model Cadman Travellers are equipped with flip down stabilizer legs. Both legs must be used at all times.
- Page 14 WARNING If a rear pull is needed, provisions MUST be made to leave the tractor attached to the tongue of hte machine. The tractor must be left in gear and the parking brake ingaged.

Page 17: Retrieve Rate Selection
During the hose retrieve cycle, the compensator THIRD POSITION frame rests against the hose on the drum. As each layer of hose is rewound, the compensator frame moves outward with the hose. This movement causes the pulley cam to rotate a measured amount, allowing the pulley to open slightly. -
Page 18: Example
NOTE: The speedometer reads actual hose speed ONLY on the base (1st) layer of hose. If the retrieve rate is set or checked on the second, third, or fourth layer, the desired retrieve rate must be set to the “corrected value” for the layer being loaded. -
