Ventrac Operators Manual

OPERATIONAL CONTROLS

12 Volt Rear Switches and 4-Pin Socket (KK, LL, and MM) ATTENTION The 4-pin socket is designed for use with Ventrac original equipment only. This connector is rated for 20 amp maximum current draw. The engine alternator and/or battery capacity determine allowable continuous draw.

Foot Pedal (OO)

The foot pedal works in conjunction with the SDLA control lever and can be used to control the speed and direction of the power unit when the operator’s hand is removed from the SDLA lever. Press down on the front portion of the foot pedal to move the power unit in the forward direction. Press down on the rear portion of the foot pedal to move in the reverse direction. Changing the amount the foot pedal is depressed will change the ground speed of the power unit. To slow or stop the power unit, press down on the opposite end of the foot pedal (i.e. if you are travelling forward, press down on the rear of the foot pedal).

The rear 4-pin socket provides electrical power to rear mounted attachments that are equipped with electrical controls. (e.g. ES220 spreader). The switches turn off and on the electrical power to the rear 4-pin socket.

Press the right side (1) of the up - per switch to turn on the electrical power to the 4-pin socket. Press the left side (2) of the switch to turn off the electrical power. Press and hold either the right (3) or left (4) side of the lower momentary switch to turn on the electrical power to the 4-pin socket. Release the switch to turn off the electrical power. Slope Indicator Gauge (NN) The slope indicator gauge is designed to monitor the total slope angle of the terrain where the power unit is operating. Total slope angle combines side-to-side angle with front-to-back angle to provide a true overall measurement of slope angle, regardless of the power unit orientation. The slope gauge has slope limit set- points that can be changed to match the capability of the power unit configuration along with attachments that might limit the slope rating of the power unit. The slope gauge is equipped with both audible and visual alerts which can be set independently to warn the operator of limiting conditions. The display screen has multiple options to suit the operator preference. Refer to the Slope Gauge Settings and Operation section for calibration, settings, and operation instructions.
