INTRODUCTION

This Handbook was designed to serve as a guide to safe and efficient operation of the DROTT 40BLC Logger. Strict adherence to therecommendations contained in these pages will ensure safer, more productive operation, will decrease machine downtime, and increase the life span of component parts.

The Book is divided into three sections, preceded by a general section on directional reference, nomenclature and specifications. Section I identifies the LOGGER controls and their functions. It also gives information on starting, stopping and operating procedures. Section II describes the various adjustments that are possible on the machine. Section III discusses the SCHEDULED PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE requirements for the LOGGER and provides the necessary information to fulfill these requirements.
