Warning Lights
Note: Salt Dogg Controller has two warning lights: "Overload"
& "Jam". The "Overload" light will be illuminated when the
auger is in "Unclogging" mode. In this mode auger will auto-
matically reverse several times to free itself. If the auger will
not be able to unclog itself, the "Jam" light will be illuminated

the vibrator circuit. The vibrator circuit breaker will trip and
the light in the vibrator switch will go out in an overload
situation. To reset the vibrator circuit breaker: Turn off the
vibrator switch for 30 seconds. Turn the vibrator switch on to
restart the vibrator.
Note: Do not run the vibrator longer than 30 minutes with
15 minutes between runs to avoid overheating.
