!
Before beginning crane operation, position yourself so that you have a clear and
complete overview of the working radius of the crane or machine.
!
To operate, hold the transmitter securely in your hand. Use the optional belt-clip.
Follow these instructions to ensure personal safety.
!
Depending on your angle or position to the crane or machine, the transmitter control
commands "trolley left" and "trolley right" appear to interchange ! It is essential that
you take your bearings to the crane or machine into due consideration before
operating equipment.
!
In case of an emergency or any disturbances within the working range of the crane
or machine, switch the transmitter off immediately by pressing the STOP
pushbutton. Should the transmitter show signs of technical failure or breakdown,
disconnect the radio control system immediately !
!
Switch the transmitter OFF during breaks and after finishing work to avoid any
misoperation of crane or machine by unintended activation of the operator controls.
!
Never leave an activated transmitter unattended. The operator undertakes to follow
and comply with the authoritative regulations for worker safety and accident
prevention (e.g. VBG 9).
Note :
In the event of an interruption of the radio link during a working cycle – what can
occasionally happen – both transmitter and receiver automatically shut down (so-
called "compulsory switch-off").
To reactivate the system release all operator controls, such as pushbuttons or
momentary contacts, and allow the control elements to return to their zero
position. Press the "Start" pushbutton. The system must be reactivated before the
crane or machine can react to control commands! This feature hinders any
uncontrolled or unwanted crane or machine movement, should the radio link be
interrupted.
When operating a crane by means of a radio control system for the first time, you
may miss the physical contact to the crane that you were used to in the operating
stand. As you are no longer in the crane and can no longer sense the starting of
the crane movements as distinctly, crane reactions will appear sluggish or dull.
