  • Page 6: Saftey Notes

    Saftey notes Before operating the radio control equipment, first read the technical description in its entirety  and ensure it is always kept available in a suitable protective cover for use on site. The receiver may only be installed by a qualified electrician acording to the pin assignment dra- ...
  • Page 7: Receiver F5 E

    Receiver F5 E Installing the F5 E receiver Mount the receiver inside of the driver's cabin using the two swivel metal brackets vertically with the cable pointing downwards. To achieve good reception, the beveled plastic top, where the integrated aerial is located, should be mounted as close as possible to the edge of the window in the driver's cabin.
  • Page 8: Connection Of The F5 E Receiver And Wiring Diagram Of The Load Outputs

    Connection of the F5 E receiver and wiring diagram of the load outputs The connection box for the winch may only be connected up by a qualified electrician according to the valid pin assignment drawing. The F5 E receiver may only be connected to the 12 V onboard power supply and has no operating switches of its own.
  • Page 9: Startup

    Startup Before connecting the receiver, check that the speci- fications on the type plate (see table below) match those of your skidder. Likewise, the device codes in the serial numbers of the receiver and transmitter must also be the same. Key to the specifications and operating modes on the receiver label: The relevant operating mode for the type concerned is marked by a point (l) in the corresponding field.
  • Page 10: Function Check

    2.3.1 Function check Warning! Risk of accident due to other winch controls. If there are two separate connectors for the manual control and the radio remote control on your skid- der, only one control system may be connected at any one time! Thus ensure that the manual control cable is disconnected first before starting to operate the remote control system.
  • Page 11: Fault-Free Operation

    2.3.2 Fault-free operation A precondition for a trouble-free operation are electrically perfect connections throughout the entire wiring system. In this regard please follow the instructions on Maintenance given in Chapter 4. In contrast to to a portable control unit, besides the positive supply voltage the wireless receiver also needs an low-resistant ground or 0 Volt connection.
  • Page 12: Parameterisation

    Parameterisation 2.4.1 Single Function "SF" (EF) / Dual Function "DF" (DF) Single Function EF Single function or SF stands for the operating mode in which, when the Pull command is given, the brake is automatically released simultaneously by a special mechanism in the winch. Dual Function DF Dual function or DF stands for the operating mode in which, when the Pull command is given by the receiver, the Release command is send at the same time to the winch, because the winch doesn’t have an automatic release.

    3.2.2 Gas ON / Gas OFF (Gas + / Gas -) In the "Simple Speed Control" version (GE), the output "Gas+" is switched on with the "Gas+" button and swit- ched off again with the "Gas-" button. In the "Continuous Speed Control" version (GS), a stroke spindle motor connected to the "G+" and "G-" outputs (not included in the delivery) increases the motor speed for as long as the "G+"...
  • Page 18: Recharging The Transmitter Battery

    Recharging the transmitter battery When the control lamp on the transmitter blinks briefly three times at short intervals, this indicates that the battery charge is low and it must be recharged. However, if you fail to notice the control lamp, there is no risk of damage due to the battery running down, as the transmitter will switch itself off automatically after a short time.
