The control pattern selection switch allows the operator to select from three joystick control patterns; GRADALL, SAE and JOHN DEERE. The pattern must be selected with the ignition key in the “OFF” position. If a new pattern is selected while the engine is running, it will not change until the engine is turned off then restarted.

Section 3 - Operation CHECKS BEFORE UNDERCARRIAGE OPERATION This section outlines the checks to be performed at the beginning of each work shift or at each change of operator. Refer to page 3-34 for procedure to check brakes after remote control operation and digging. Repair any deficiencies before driving or operating the equipment.
Page 78
Section 3 - Operation Parking Brake OAC0550 • Two parking brake controls are provided; one on undercarriage dashboard (1) and another on left hand pod panel in the upperstructure (2). The switch in the upperstructure cab is inoperative when in travel mode. Undercarriage park brake must remain applied when in remote mode.

Section 3 - Operation TRAVEL MODE POWER TRAIN Shifting Gears The transmission is automatically shifted with 6 forward speeds plus reverse. Ranges are selected by pressing and releasing the button for the desired range on the Transmission Shift Selector. For example, press and release the “N” button to select Neutral, the “D”...

Section 3 - Operation Differential Lock Normally, differential lock will engage and disengage immediately in response to lock/unlock toggle; however, differential “wind-up”, or misalignment can delay engagement/disengagement. In this event, reversing direction of travel and/or operation of steering while traveling may relieve differential “wind-up”. Indicator light shows actual state of lock engagement/disengagement.

Section 3 - Operation 3. Front Axle Drive Switch (if equipped): To Engage: • Stop machine. • Move toggle lever on dash to the “I” position. Notice!: Engaging front axle drive while undercarriage is moving will damage transfer case. Stop undercarriage before engaging front axle drive. To Disengage: •...

Section 3 - Operation REMOTE MODE POWER TRAIN Driving Undercarriage from Upperstructure Cab Remote travel is possible at all times except when indicated by an audible alarm and the travel lockout symbol being illuminated on the monitor. When this condition exists, the directional travel pedal must be slowly and carefully activated in both directions until the light and alarm turn off.

Section 3 - Operation General There is a lift capacity difference between the excavator’s best and worst lift positions. Just because it can lift a load from one point does not mean it can safely deliver the load to any other point. Prior to lifting and placing a load, map out the lift, swing, and lower path to ensure that capacity, both hydraulic and stability tipping limits, are not exceeded.

-557lbs. (253kg) Note: Bucket adjustment values are 87% of the actual bucket weights. Any weight adjustment for Gradall buckets not shown can be calculated by multiplying actual bucket weight by .87. • The load point is located on the bucket pivot point, including load listed for maximum radius.
Section 3 - Operation 3.14 REMOTE MODE ENGINE SHUTDOWN To shutdown the excavator, park in a safe location on flat level ground and away from other equipment and/or traffic lanes. From Upperstructure Cab: 1. Stop machine by removing pressure from foot pedals. 2.
Section 3 - Operation 3.15 RETURN TO TRAVEL MODE Preparing Upperstructure for Undercarriage Operation 1. Check operation of brakes after remote operation and digging. 2. Position unit on level surface, apply digging brake and stop engine. Check the following for damage; brake actuator chambers and rods, brake actuator brackets, and slack adjusters.
Section 3 - Operation Boom Stow Procedure 1. With teleboom extended, stow boom in boom rest. 2.
