Automatic Start--Stop is provided to permit

starting/stopping/restarting of the unit as required. This feature
allows full automatic control of the engine or compressor starting
and stopping by monitoring box temperature, battery charging
amps and engine coolant temperature. The main function of
automatic cycling is to turn off the refrigeration system near
setpoint to provide an energy efficient temperature control system
and to initiate a restart sequence when certain conditions are met.
The Start--Stop/Continuous key is pressed to select between
Continuous Run and Start--Stop operating modes. Refer to
RECOMMENDED TRANSPORT TEMPERATURES (See Page 51) for
Start--Stop operation.

62--10646 16

“START-STOP LOCKED” appears in the MessageCenter when the
unit is in Start--Stop Mode or “CONTINUOUS LOCKED” appears
in the MessageCenter when the unit is in Continuous Run Mode.

Whenever the unit starts in Start--Stop, it will run until:

SIt has run for the selected minimum run time
SThe engine coolant temperature is above 122°F (50°C)
SThe battery is fully charged as indicated in the MessageCenter by
“OK” after the voltage value AND the charging amps must be less
than the value selected in the configuration list (Factory setting is
6.5 amps.)
SThe box temperature is within ±0.5_F (±0.3_C) of setpoint for
setpoints in the Perishable range or is less than +0.5_F (+0.3_C)
above setpoint for setpoints in the Frozen range.
A restart will be initiated when one of the following conditions
occurs:
SEngine coolant temperature drops below 34°F (1°C)
SThe battery voltage falls below voltage selected in the
configuration list.
SDuring the Minimum Off Time box temperature has moved away
from setpoint by 4° to 18°F (2° to 10°C) depending on the
Functional Parameter settings.
SThe Minimum Off Time has expired and the box temperature has
moved away from setpoint by more than 4°F (2°C).
S Maximum Off Time has expired. The Maximum off time setting
ensures that the entire load stays within safe temperature range.
The unit will start after a pre--selected maximum off
time--regardless of any change in box temperature.

If the engine fails to start after three start attempts, the

“FAILED TO START--AUTO MODE” alarm will be activated. While
running, if the unit shuts down on a safety, or fails to run for the
minimum run time, three consecutive times, the
“FAILED TO RUN MINIMUM TIME” Alarm will be activated. The
shutdown counter is cleared when the engine has run for 15
minutes, or when the unit cycles off normally.

OPTIONS

INTELLISETT
The Advancet Microprocessor offers over 48
parameters that may be set depending on the product
being carried.
Available with the Advance Microprocessors is the
IntelliSet Option. IntelliSet allows the owner to pre--program
specific product settings into the microprocessor and give
the settings a name. The driver may then call up these
settings by simply selecting the IntelliSet name.
For example: Apples may require continuous operation
at 35°F (1.7°C) with a defrost every 3 hours while a load of
cheese may require the same operation with setpoints
ranging from 35°F to 42°F (1.7°C to 5.6°C) and a load of
ice cream requires start/stop operation at --22°F (--30°) with
defrost at 12 hour intervals. The settings required for each
product may be entered into the microprocessor and then
locked so they cannot be changed. In the case of the
cheese, the range of setpoints may be locked, leaving the
driver the ability to change the setpoint within the locked
range.
When a load of apples is going to be picked up, the
driver simply selects “APPLES” from the IntelliSet menu;
for cheese, “CHEESE” is selected and the setpoint reset as
required; for ice cream, “ICE CREAM” is selected. With
each selection, the microprocessor automatically
re--programs the settings to provide the best temperature
control, fuel economy, and performance for that particular
product.

NOTE: Intelliset #31 is pre--programmed as “IntelliSleep”

which allows Sleep Mode (See Page 20) to be entered by
simply changing to that IntelliSet.
NOTE: The above settings are examples of possible
settings. Except for #31, IntelliSets are not factory set.
They are developed by individual customers.

1 During delivery cycles that include frequent stops and door

openings, it is recommended that this unit always be operated in
the
continuous run mode to help insure product quality. If it is possible,
this unit should be turned off during the time the trailer doors are
open to help conserve the product temperature.
2 Variations may be necessary for very high or very low ambient
temperatures. 3.

PRE-TRIP INSPECTION
The pre-trip inspection should be performed before picking up any
load. This inspection is essential to anticipate and help minimize the
possibility of “over-the-road” problems. These checks take only a
few minutes.
1. Place the Start/Run--Off Switch in the OFF position.
2. Fuel -- drain any water and impurities from the sump of the
refrigeration unit fuel tank by opening the drain-cock located on
the bottom of the tank (if so equipped). Close the valve when
only pure fuel emerges. Check the fuel level in the tank,
ensuring that the fuel supply is adequate for unit operation.
Refuel if necessary. Dispose of fuel properly. Don’t drain waste
fuel onto ground.
3. Belts -- Check the belt tension by depressing the belt with your
thumb, near the center of the longest free run of each belt.
Under moderate pressure each belt should deflect
approximately 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch (6 mm to 13mm). If the belts
deflect more than this they should be tightened (loose belts may
slip, generating heat and reducing belt life). If the belts are too
tight they should be loosened; tight belts can reduce bearing
life.
4. Battery -- on unit equipped with serviceable batteries, the level
of the electrolyte in each of the cells should be checked. If the
level is low, distilled water should be added to the correct level.
Most units, however, are equipped with low or no-maintenance
batteries; these should be inspected to ensure that the
connections are clean and tight, and the battery hold-down
should be checked for tightness.
5. Engine Oil -- the engine oil should be checked last since it is
necessary for oil to drain down from the block and into the oil
pan to obtain a correct reading. Unscrew and remove the
dipstick. Wipe the dipstick clean and insert it into the oil fill tube
without threading it all the way back into the tube. Remove the
dipstick again and check oil level. DO NOT add oil if the level
is in the “safe” range. If needed, add oil as indicated by markings
on dipstick until level is in the “safe” range. (See page 59)

 WARNING
Inspect battery cables for signs of wear, abrasion
or damage at every Pre--Trip inspection and re-
place if necessary. Also check battery cable rout-
ing to ensure that clamps are secure and that
cables are not pinched or chafing against any
components.
6. Over-all Unit -- visually inspect the entire unit for leaks, loose
bolts, frayed, loose, or broken wires, etc. The
radiator/condenser coils of this unit should be free of dirt,
insects, cardboard, or any other debris that may obstruct
airflow across the coils. The evaporator (located inside the
trailer) should be free of debris also, especially stretch-wrap,
which is often used during transport to prevent cargo shifting.
7. Start a Pretrip Check (See Page 12).

PRODUCT LOADING
BEFORE LOADING:
D Pre-cool the trailer. This will remove much of the heat from the
inside of the trailer, and give the product better protection when
it is loaded.
D If possible, place the unit in a defrost cycle immediately before
loading. This
will remove moisture accumulated on the evaporator coil.
DURING LOADING:
D Place the Start/Run--Off Switch in the Off position.
D Check product temperature during loading.
D Ensure that the air return and supply opening remain
unobstructed.
D Leave approximately 4 to 5 inches (100 to 125 mm) between the
load and the front wall for air return to the unit.
D Leave at least 10 to 12 inches (250 to 300 mm) between the top
of the load and the ceiling to ensure that there is nothing to
prevent airflow to the rear of the body
D Load product on pallets to provide free air return to unit and
improve product protection.

53 62--10646
PRODUCT LOADING (CONTINUED)
Proper air circulation in the trailer, air that can move around and
through the load, is a critical element in maintaining product quality
during transport. If air cannot circulate completely around the load,
hot spots or top-freeze can occur.
The use of pallets is highly recommended. Pallets, when loaded so
air can flow freely through the pallets to return to the evaporator, help
protect the product from heat passing through the floor of the trailer.
When using pallets, it is important to refrain from stacking extra boxes
on the floor at the rear of the trailer as this will cut off the airflow.
Product stacking is another important factor in protecting the
product. Products that generate heat -- fruits and vegetables, for
example -- should be stacked so the air can flow through the product
to remove the heat; this is called “air stacking” the product.
Products that do not create heat -- meats and frozen products --
should be stacked tightly in the center of the trailer. All products
should be kept away from the side-walls of the body, to allow air flow
between the body and the load; this prevents heat filtering through
the walls from affecting the product.
It is important to check the temperature of the product being loaded
to ensure that it is at the correct temperature for transport. The
refrigeration unit is designed to maintain the temperature of the
product at the temperature at which it was loaded; it was not
designed to cool warm product.

PRIMING FUEL SYSTEM

The mechanical fuel lift pump is mounted on the engine next to the
injection pump. This pump has a manual plunger for priming the fuel
system when the fuel tank has been run dry.
To prime the fuel system, use the following steps:
1. Turn the bleed valve (Red) counter-clockwise until fully
opened.
2. Turn the top of the manual fuel pump plunger
counter-clockwise to unlock it. S--L--O--W--L--Y (up/down once
per second) pump the manual plunger until positive pressure
(resistance) is felt. This may take up to 200 strokes. This will
indicate fuel flow.
3. Continue to pump S--L--O--W--L--Y (up/down once per second)
approximately 100 more strokes to fill the filter and bleed the air
out of the lines.
4. Start engine. It may be necessary to continue to pump until the
engine starts.
5. Depress and turn the top of the manual plunger clockwise to
lock in place.
6. When engine is running smoothly, turn bleed valve clockwise
until fully closed.
