2.2 INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE SAFE AND PROPER USE OF THE RADIO

REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM

IMPORTANT ! The operator who uses the Radio Remote Control must:
be very familiar with the functions and characteristics of both the Radio Remote Control and the
•
machine to which the receiving unit is connected;
visually follow the machine movements that are activated by the Radio Remote Control;
•
switch off the transmitting unit whenever work is stopped, even if temporarily and even if the unit is
•
equipped with an automatic shut-down function;
• not leave the transmitting unit unattended with the starting key inserted;
remember that the transmitting unit can activate machine movements even if in a closed position at a
•
distance from the receiving unit. Improper use can seriously injure people and/or things;
not wash the units with water jets, but use only a damp cloth;
•
not use the Radio Remote Control inside screened areas (e.g. inside the drum of a concrete mixer);
•
• only charge the batteries when they are completely exhausted;
• not interrupt the battery charging process. Should this happen, remove the battery from the battery
charger and use it until completely exhausted.
Description of the most common operations:
Start-up: Insert the starting key and leave it at "0". Insert the battery into its correct position without forcing it.
•
Make sure that all the control switches are at OFF and that the mushroom button (STOP active) has not been
activated. Turn the starting key to "1" then press the start command. The LED on the transmitting unit will start
blinking.
Warning: The system only switches on if the battery is sufficiently charged.
Commands: Manoeuvre the control devices (joysticks and keys) relating to the movements to be carried out.
•
STOP function: If the mushroom button (STOP active) is activated, the receiver stops immediately once the
•
Stop contacts are opened. Remember to reset the button by turning it in a clockwise direction.
Switching off: Turn the starting key to "0" and extract it. Place the key in a safe place.
•
Passive emergency function: The receiving unit stops if the radio link is interrupted or if radio signal is
•
disturbed (Passive emergency).
Battery level indicator: When the battery capacity is no longer sufficient for safe command transmission, the
•
transmission LED begins blinking quickly. When this happens take the lifting device to a safe position, switch off
the transmitting unit and recharge the battery or replace it with a fully charged one (if available).
IMPORTANT: Never recharge the batteries if they are not completely exhausted.
Pre-settings: A series of micro-switches present on the electronic modules of both the transmitter and the
•
receiver can be used to pre-set.
CAUTION: Micro-switch 3 is for reserved use and must always remain set to OFF.
