GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Cruise Master is a speed control system which

employs engine manifold vacuum to power the throttle

Servo unit. The Servo moves the throttle when speed

adjustment is necessary by receiving a varying amount

of bleed air from the Regulator unit. The Regulator

varies the amount of bleed air through a valve system

which is linked to a speedometer-like mechanism. The

speedometer cable from the transmission drives the

Regulator, and a cable from the Regulator drives the

instrument panel speedometer. The. engagement of the
Regulator unit is controlled by an Engagement Switch

located at the end of the turn signal lever. Two brake

release switches are provided: an Electric Switch dis-

engages the Regulator unit and a Vacuum Switch de-

creases the vacuum in the Servo unit to quickly return

the throttle to idle position.

The operation of each unit of the system and the

operation of the entire system under various circum-

stances is described below. Figure 1 shows the location

of the system components within the vehicle-

COMPONENT OPERATION

ENGAGEMENT SWITCH

This switch, located within the turn signal knob, has

three positions. In the fully released position, the switch

passes current through resistance wire to effect a "hold

in" magnetic field in the Regulator solenoid. This cur-

rent is sufficient only to hold the solenoid in place once

it has been actuated by the "pull in" circuit. Depressing

the button partially allows current to flow to the Regu-

lator solenoid at full voltage which causes the solenoid

to pull in. Depressing the button fully opens the circuit

to both the resistance and standard solenoid feed wires

and the solenoid becomes de-activated.

During vehicle operation the three switch positions

have the following functions:

Released

a. System not engaged: No function of the system

will occur although a small current is flowing

through the solenoid via the resistance wire (at

vehicle speeds over 20 mph).

b.
System engaged: The small current flowing

through the resistance wire is holding the solenoid

in the engaged position.

Partially Depressed

Full voltage is applied to the solenoid (vehicle speed

over 20 mph) which sets the Regulator to maintain the

vehicle speed at the time of Regulator engagement.

Fully Depressed

No electricity flows to the solenoid and the Regulator

is inactive. This position is used by the driver when he

desires to raise or lower his controlled speed. He may

accelerate to his new speed, press the button fully (Regu-

lator releases previously set speed) and release the but-

ton. Upon releasing the button, it passes through the

partially depressed position and the solenoid is "pulled

in", then into released position which provides "hold in"-

current. The driver may also press the button fully with

no pressure on the accelerator pedal. In this case the

regulator releases control of the throttle which returns

to idle and the car slows. When the button is released

the solenoid is pulled in and held in respectively and the

regulator resumes speed control at the speed of the

vehicle during the moment of button release (at vehicle

speeds over 20 mph).

6. The car begins to descend a hill--car speed in-

creases slightly and the regulator movements oc-

curing above occur again except in reverse. The

rubber drum is turned further against spring tension

and the air bleed orifices are uncovered more. This

bleeds more air to the Servo reducing the vacuum in

the unit. The diaphragm moves away from the

vacuum port, closes the throttle slightly, and with-

draws the tapered needle from the vacuum orifice.

With the orifice enlarged, the increased vacuum

counteracts the increased air bleed and the dia-

phragm finds a balance again at a reduced throttle

opening.

7.
Driver accelerates by pressing accelerator pedal-

car speed increases and the system responds by

moving the diaphragm to decrease throttle opening.

Since a bead chain is used, the chain merely relaxes

and has no effect on throttle operation. After the

driver releases pressure from the pedal, the throttle

will close until car speed decreases to the pre-set

speed. At that point the Regulator bleeds less air

to the Servo which opens the throttle enough to

maintain the pre-set speed. The system returns to a

stable condition.

8. Driver desires higher controlled speed, presses ac-

celerator until new speed is reached, and depresses

Engagement Switch fully and releases button--speed

sensing assembly tries to turn in a direction that

would decrease the throttle opening until the driver

fully depresses the Engagement Switch. Then the

current is cut off to the solenoid which retracts; the

solenoid nose expands the "U" clip releasing its

grip on the rubber drum. The drum and disk as-

sembly then rotates to a new position because of the

higher car speed. When the solenoid retracts, it also

shuts off vacuum to the Servo and opens the vacuum

port to atmospheric pressure within the Regulator

thereby bleeding down the Servo toward idle throttle

position. As the driver releases the Engagement

Switch, the contacts cause "pull in" and "hold in" of

the solenoid respectively. The system is engaged to
maintain the car speed at the time of Engagement

Switch release.

9. Driver desires lower cruising speed, presses En-

gagement Switch fully, waits until car speed de-

creases to desired speed then releases Switch--when

the Engagement switch is fully depressed the sole-

noid is de-energized causing the vacuum switch to

bleed down the Servo to idle throttle position and the

"U"
clip of the idle bleed valve is released from the

rubber drum. The drum and disk assembly is free

to rotate to a position which corresponds to vehicle

speed as the car slows. When the driver releases

the Engagement Switch, the unit "pulls in" and "holds

in" in the normal manner. The air bleed valve is

clutched to, the rubber drum at the car speed during

switch release. Vacuum is again applied to the

Servo and throttle control is assumed by the Regu-

lator to maintain the car speed at the time of switch

release.

10.
With system in operation, driver applies brakes--

simultaneously the Vacuum Release and Electric

Release Switches operate. The Vacuum Switch

bleeds air into the Servo through the air bleed line

coming from the Regulator. The vacuum is reduced

in the Servo and the throttle returns to idle position.

The Electric Release Switch cuts off power to the

entire system and the solenoid is de-energized. If

the driver removes his foot from the brake pedal the

Electric Switch again feeds voltage to the Engage-

ment Switch and the Vacuum Switch seals the air

bleed line. If the vehicle speed is above 20 mph

when this occurs, reduced voltage will flow to the

solenoid through the 40 ohm wire which will not be

sufficient to "pull in" the unit. If vehicle speed is

below 20 mph no current will flow since the tang

on the rubber drum has opened the low limit switch

points in the Regulator. In either case, after de-

pressing the brake pedal, the system will not con-

trol car speed until the driver operates the engage-

ment switch above 20 mph.

SERVICE OPERATIONS

The components of the Cruise Master system are de-

signed to be replaced should they become inoperative.

The Regulator is calibrated in such a manner during

manufacturing that overhaul operations are impractical.

However, one adjustment may be made to the Regulator to

correct speed drop or increase at the time of

engagement.

BRAKE RELEASE SWITCHES

ELECTRIC

Service — An inoperative switch must be replaced.

Switch replacement is identical to standard brake lamp

switch replacement.

Adjustment- The brake switch plunger must clear the

pedal arm when the arm is moved 1/4 inch measured at

the switch (Figure 7).

VACUUM

Service
—
An inoperative (sticking, plugged, or leaking)

switch must be replaced. Switch replacement is similar
to brake switch replacement. Be certain that the hose to

the switch is connected firmly and is not cracked or

deteriorated.

Adjustment- The brake switch plunger must clear the

pedal arm when the arm is moved 5/16 inch measured at

the switch (Figure 7).
