FUNCTIONALITY AUTO START Auto start functionalilty enables temperature triggered power start up and shut down. Both the fan and tower oscillation of the machine start operating once the preset low temperature is detected and automatically shuts down once the upper temperature setting is reached. ROTATION & OSCILLATION The tower and fan-head can oscillate through any angle or rotate a full 360 degrees. The hydraulic functions of the Tow and Blow are driven by a DC hydraulic power pack. The oscillation angle is easily adjusted using mechanical steps. A solar panel provides backup charging to the...
