If any installation problems are encountered, please call G&B Specialties, Inc. for
technical assistance before continuing with the installation process.
Failure to heed to any of the following warnings could result in severe bodily
injury and/or equipment damage.
Read and understand this manual completely before attempting installation or
operation of the equipment.
Installation/Operation instructions provided below only address the Rafna
railgear equipment. Applicable railway company procedures and policies must
be adhered to.
Before performing any work under the vehicle or railgear, ensure the engine is
turned off and the parking brake is set.
When routing hydraulic hoses, ensure that the hoses do not contact any sharp
edges or hot surfaces.
When routing electrical wires, ensure that the wires do not contact any sharp
edges or hot surfaces.
All wire connections are to be soldered and heat shrink sealed to prevent
future corrosion related problems.
All wires must be covered with protective cable loom.
Railway company rules governing rail travel must always be observed.
Ensure all body parts and loose clothing are clear of any moving parts of the
railgear. Be aware of all pinch points.
Note that if the railgear is part way retracted or extended, opening the
manifold directional valve manual over-rides may cause the railgear to drop
suddenly causing personal injury. Ensure all body parts are clear of the railgear
if it should suddenly drop.
When operating the railgear using the emergency hand pump, ensure that the
correct manual valve over-ride is open for the desired railgear (front or rear)
and desired direction of operation (raise or lower).
