Troubleshooting Manual System Fault Conditions A-2-B alarm ( Alarm 60) This code is caused by an open circuit in the A-2-B switch. Actions to take; Fully retract the boom and lower the angle to zero degrees. Check if the machine is in a A-2-B condition, lower hook block. Check if the cable or connectors are damaged between the switch to the display.

Troubleshooting Manual Cable replacement Remove all tension from the cable reel to avoid injury or damage to the spring package of the cable reel. Fully retract the boom and lower to zero degrees angle. Remove the black connector from the end of the cable to reuse it later (Fig 14).
Page 19
Troubleshooting Manual Cable replacement Remove all the cable from the cable reel drum and push up the cable protective loom and cut it off at the back side of the cable reel (Fig 16). Lay the cable reel on its mounting bracket to access the front area (Fig 17).

Troubleshooting Manual Cable replacement Remove three self locking nuts using a 10mm wrench (Fig 18). Carefully remove the plastic slip ring cover cap (Fig 19). You may require using a flat tip screwdriver to pry it . Insert the tip of the screwdriver just enough to catch the side of the cap. DO NOT INSERT IT TO DEEP OR YOU CAN DAMAGE THE SLIPRING! Fig 18...

Troubleshooting Manual Cable replacement Set the cable reel on its side, loosen the pg strain relief connector and remove the cable (Fig 21). Strip back one end of the replacement cable the same length as the old cable or approximately 12 inches and feed it through the cable reel drum access hole from the inside of the drum area and then into the base connector and up into the slip ring collector Fig 22).
Page 23
Troubleshooting Manual Cable replacement The cable inserted into the pg strain relief must have the outer jacket on in order for the strain relief to work. Tighten the pg connector strain relief nut. Cut off any access wire inside the slip ring and install the ring terminal and connect the wire to the proper terminal of the slip ring collector.

Troubleshooting Manual Cable replacement Install the replacement cable back onto the drum, except for 42 ft of slack, which will require being routed inside the boom, place a tie wrap on the cable at the roller guide on the reel and install it back on the boom. Feed the cable through the boom to the boom tip and connect the strain relief and the black connector.
Page 25
Troubleshooting Manual Angle adjustment Fully retract the boom and lower the angle to zero degrees using a angle finder to determine zero degrees.Remove the cover of the cable reel and check the +12.00vdc (Typically the voltage is about 11.9- 13.5vdc) supply voltage (Brown wire) and the ground wire (white wire). If it is not correct loosen the three mounting screws with a flat tip screwdriver and adjust the pot until the angle indicates zero degrees on the display.

Troubleshooting Manual Rotation Pot Replacement Install the hardware back into place and tighten. Do not tighten the top set screws on Drive assembly at this time. Go to page 30 and then adjust the pot collar until the display read out is indicating an average of 180 degrees.

AUTO DIAGNOSTIC Rotation sensor Press and release the ENTER pushbutton and scroll to page P10 of the auto diagnostics, the RA is the channel we will adjust the pot to read 180 degrees (average between the two outputs of channel A and B when the boom is directly over the rear of the machine and tighten the set screws on the upper drive assembly and then tighten the drive assembly set screw.
AUTO DIAGNOSTIC Cylinder topping In the event the cylinder is topped the system detects a shutoff condition due to the piston pressure has exceeded the calibration data inside the system. In order to boom the machine back down out of the upper stops, you must select the Rigging and Travel mode to allow this or bypass the system using the bypass key switch.
