Abstract
A milling machine includes a scraper door and a control system adapted to control a movement of the scraper door. The control system includes at least one actuator coupled with the scraper door. An extension of the at least one actuator allows lowering of the scraper door and a retraction of the at least one actuator allows raising of the scraper door. The control system also includes a first valve. The control system further includes a second valve. The control module is configured to receive an input signal for raising the scraper door. The control module is also configured to transmit a first signal for operating the first valve in the second position and a second signal for controlling an amount of opening of the second valve for the retraction of the at least one actuator in order to raise the scraper door.
