Manual (Forced) Regeneration
The regeneration is manually (forced) activated by the operator
when the operator chooses to start the regeneration process.
Manual (forced) regeneration may be required if the operator
"inhibits" the active regeneration process for an extended period
of time because the operating conditions are not favorable to hot
engine exhaust temperatures (e.g. working near flammable
materials).
Procedures for manual (forced) regeneration by the operator.
1.
Park machine in a well ventilated area and away from
flammable materials.
2.
Set up machine in the following manner:
A.
Operate machine until engine coolant are above
40°C (104°F).
B.
Set engine speed to "LOW IDLE".
C.
Put transmission lever in "NEUTRAL" and engage
parking brake (Wheel excavator only).
3.
Move safety lever to "LOCK" position.
4.
Activate regeneration switch (Figure 25) to start
regeneration process.
NOTE:
Regeneration light on monitor will be "ON".
NOTE:
Regeneration switch should be pushed 3 - 8 sec
for regeneration.
If puch time is over 16 sec, fault code would be
displayed on monitor.
Engine speed will gradually increase from "LOW IDLE" to
1,500 rpm and regeneration process will then start.
During regeneration, high temperature warning light will be
"ON".
When regeneration stops, regeneration and high temperature
warning lights will turn "OFF".
NOTE:
Operator can stop manual (forced) regeneration
by raising safety lever to "UNLOCK" position.
