STANDARD FEATURES

• Provides smooth variable speed capability for mobile equipment.

• Maintains variable speed control as batteries discharge.

• Adjustable min speed, max speed, i.r. compensation, current limit, and accel.

• Inhibit terminal permits optional start-stop without breaking battery lines.

• Speed potentiometer, knob, and dialplate included.

• Increases range OR running time of battery operated equipment through high

efficiency.

• Automatic current limit foldback decreases current limit to 50% of setpoint when
heatsink temperatures reach 80° C. - provides protection from overheating.

CAUTION: DO NOT MOUNT CONTROLLER WHERE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE IS

OUTSIDE THE RANGE OF -10° C (15° F) TO 45° C ( 115° F).

INSTALLATION & HOOK-UP

Before attempting to wire the control, make sure all power is disconnected. Recheck code
designation to assure proper voltage is present for the control. Caution should be used in
selecting proper size of hook-up wire for current and voltage drop. Note: The battery and
armature wire size on 175135.00REV1 and 175136.00REV1 models must be a minimum of 12
gauge.

Warning:

Do not reverse positive or negative battery leads, this will damage the control. To

change motor direction, interchange the positive and negative Armature leads.

Refer to the following wiring diagrams for proper location when connecting DC Voltage,
Armature, and Speedpot wires to the control.

CAUTION !! TURN POWER OFF WHILE MAKING CONNECTIONS.

To properly adjust the CURRENT LIMIT setting, a DC ammeter should be placed in series with
the armature line. This meter can be removed after the control is adjusted.

Warning:

Improper installation or operation of this control may cause injury to

personnel or control failure. The control must be installed and grounded

in accordance with local, state, and national safety codes.
