Bar Suck Back Override
Suck Back Override
The Suck Back Override feature is now standard on every
machine, and is designed for quick in-cab switching from BAR
CIRC to SUCK BACK mode while spraying.
When the SUCK BACK OVERRIDE button is activated, all valves
open in SPRAY mode will close, and the pump will begin sucking
back material in the spray bar at 200 GPM.
The following steps are performed in the cab while BAR CIRC (Bar
Circulate) is selected on the rear panel Function keypad.
1. Press the SUCK BACK OVERRIDE button ON.
2. If complete bar suck back is desired, follow the instructions for
Suckback Spraybar (page 11).
Note: The pump can be stopped and the automatic tank valve can
be closed immediately at any time during operation by turning the
POWER switch OFF. Before turning the POWER switch back ON,
turn the PUMP SPEED to zero if the PUMP CONTROL is set to
MANUAL, to prevent the pump from turning.
