The MX19 is equipped with a load sensing system, it operates in the following way.
If a load equivalent to 90% of safe working load is in the basket the RED LED on the platform control box
will flash slowly
If the load continues to rise the RED LED will flash progressively faster until 100% of safe working load is
reached
If a load equivalent to 100% of safe working load is in the basket the RED LED will stay on and an alarm
will sound
If a load greater than the safe working load is in the basket the RED LED will stay on, an alarm will sound
and all machine functions will cease to operate.
In order to return to normal operation a load equal to or less than the safe working load must be present in
the basket and the power must be re-cycled, power can be re-cycled by pushing the emergency stop
button and releasing it again.
