Storing/Recalling a Preset on EH Models
The control pendant has the ability to store 6 pre-set
speeds for the belt and the option. The current speeds can
be stored as a pre-set so that they can quickly be recalled.
To Store:
1. Press the "Store/Recall presets" button square
brackets will appear in the centre of the bottom line
of the display.
2. Press and hold button 1 through 6 for 3 seconds, the
square bracket will begin flashing. The current belt
and spinner speed will be stored to that preset.
To Recall:
1. Press the "Store/Recall presets" button square
brackets will appear in the centre of the bottom line
of the display.
2. Press button 1 through 6. The preset belt and spinner
speed for that button will become the current belt and
spinner speed.
How to Load the ProPass
Load the ProPass with a front-end loader, or use a larger
material handler designed to load material into the
ProPass hopper.
If sacks of material are being used, empty the sacks into
the loader's bucket before loading the material into the
hopper. To ensure stability, distribute the load evenly,
front to back and side to side.
How to Operate the ProPass
1. Fill the ProPass hopper with the material to be spread
as mentioned above.
2. Ensure option is installed (Twin Spinner or Vortex
Brush).
3. Adjust the gate height to the preferred setting. (See
the ProPass Factory-Recommended Settings Guide
in this manual).
4. On SH models adjust both flow control valves to the
preferred setting. On EH models set the belt and

option speeds to the preferred setting. (See the
ProPass Factory-Recommended Settings Guide in
this manual).
5. Park the tow vehicle 3 m (10 ft) in front of the area
required for top dressing.
6. On SH models ensure that the on/off pendant
switches are both off. On EH models ensure the
control pendant functions are stopped.
7. Ensure that the tow vehicle's engine is at a low rpm
(revolutions per minute). Engage the tow vehicle's
hydraulics to bring fluid to operating temperature.
8. Increase rpm of tow vehicle. Turn the option on,
using the on/off pendant on SH models or the control
pendent on EH models.
9. Drive forward to the area that requires top dressing,
raising the rpm of the tow vehicle to the optimal
operating range.
10. When the ProPass option is directly over the
beginning of the top dressing area, use the on/off
pendant on SH models or the control pendant on EH
models to turn on the conveyer belt.
11. Travel in a straight line and spread the material at a
constant speed until the spread reaches the edge of
the top dressing area.
12. Turn off the conveyor belt, turn the ProPass around,
and position it for the next pass.
13. Before making the next pass, check the spread
pattern on the ground. Adjust the ProPass settings if
necessary.
14. For EH models the "all start" function can be used in
place of the option start and belt start functions as a
single operation start feature. The option will start
followed by the belt.
15. Continue steps 8 to 11 until the entire area requiring
top dressing has been completed, or the hopper is
empty.
16. Turn off the conveyor belt and the option, lower the
tow vehicle's rpm, and disengage the hydraulics.
