6.3 Starting the CPS Rover
Refer to the Quick Start Guide for easy operation instructions.
Before starting the machine, be sure to check that your work area is free of debris and other material that could be run over by the
machine.
Starting the Propane Machine
1. Adjust handlebars to desired height and grasp firmly.
2Stand behind the machine with feet planted firmly on even ground.
3. Pull up on the ‘Emergency Stop’ button, making sure it is disengaged.
4. Move the ‘START’ switch to engage the engine, while slowly turning the throttle counterclockwise.
5. Turn the throttle to desired RPM, which is displayed on the tachometer (located on the frame) for your convenience.
6. Weights can be lowered to increase grinding pressure, though weights need to be returned to their upright position when
attempting to change tooling or to transport.
7. To stop machine, decrease RPM by turning the throttle counterclockwise, then depress the “Emergency Stop” button on the
machine.
8 .Return weights to upright position after shutting machine off. Be sure to return the weights to their original position any time the
machine needs to be laid back or transported, such as during tooling changes.
9. Turn propane valve to the off position when finished with work and store machine as is appropriate.
• Be sure to run machine in a well-ventilated area. Lack of ventilation can cause machine issues and are dangerous for operators and
bystanders.
• Do not start machine with grinding head in the upright position.
• Be sure the dust skirt is attached before starting the machine.
• Do not let machine idle for more than a minute. Extended idling can cause damage to centrifugal clutch.
• Over-torqueing the throttle in either direction can cause throttle damage.
6.4 Grinding Weights
The grinding weights on the CPS Rover are designed to maximize grinding pressure when necessary. Weights
are located above the shroud on both sides of the machine (See p.9) and are approximately 75 lbs per weight
for a total of 150 lbs additional grinding pressure.
Weights may be lowered when needed by grasping the handle on the weights and pulling them forward. To
replace weights, lift by handle and return to original position.
WARNING
•
Weights are pinch-points. Be careful when moving to keep fingers from being smashed.
•
Do not attempt to lay back or transport the machine with the weights forward.
6.5 Wet Grinding
The CPS Rover is equipped with both a gravity fed water system as well as a misting system. To use the gravity fed system, locate
the valve on the side of the water tank. Be sure your machine water tank is full before beginning. Simply turn the valve to begin
gravity fed water system. To use misting system, locate the mist button on the control panel. For intermittent misting, simply press
up on the button. For continuous misting, depress the button.
