--Engine Drive--
2. To ensure that the engine will not run after the irrigation cycle is complete, make
sure the wobble switch “clicks” before the gearbox is shifted into neutral. Once
the gearbox is in neutral the sprinkler cart will not advance the
compensation/shut off bar and the engine grounding switch will be unable to
ground the ignition system. The engine will continue to run. As the sprinkler cart
comes into the machine, the sequence of events is as follows:
a. The sprinkler cart will contact the shut-off bar.
b. The shut-off rod and switch ramp will trip the wobble switch.
Warning! Ensure that the switch ramp will trip the wobble switch before the shut-off
bar has reached the level wind frame. If the shut-off bar is allowed to reach the
levelwind frame before engine shut down or before the gearbox has been shifted to
neutral, machine damage will occur.
Safety Shut Off Adjustment Turbine and Engine
The safety or secondary shut down feature is accomplished by the disengagement of the
gearbox by the shut off bar
1. Adjust the actuator bolt on the lower left of the compensator/shut off bar so it
disengages the gearbox just as the shut off bar contacts the level wind frame.
2. In normal operation the engine or turbine are shut off with the first movement of
the shut off bar however if those systems fail the safety system stops the drive,
preventing damage to the machine and/or sprinkler cart.
