NOTE
This user manual/assembly instructions must be read carefully before starting
any work on and with the DRC-MJ D3 hand-held transmitter, especially before
the unit is put into operation for the first time.
The manufacturer assumes no liability for any damage which results from the
following.
• non-compliance with the user manual/assembly instructions
• inappropriate use
• untrained personnel
• unauthorised conversions
• technical modifications
Before putting the equipment into operation, operating personnel must be satisfied
that the radio control system is in safe and correct operating condition.
In addition, the safety instructions must be followed and measures described in the
crane user manual/assembly instructions must be applied.
Safe wireless remote control of a crane requires clear assignment of the
DRC-MJ D3 hand-held transmitter to a DRC radio receiver. This unique
assignment is created by sharing the address between the DRC-MJ D3 hand-
held transmitter and radio receiver when the equipment is put into operation. The
operator can recognise which receiver is being controlled by means of the crane
identification shown on the screen of the DRC-MJ D3 hand-held transmitter.
Ensure that nobody can be endangered by operation of the crane before the crane/
machine controlled by the radio control system is switched on or put into operation.
If the operator notices persons who may be exposed to a risk to health or personal
safety by operation of the equipment, he must stop operation immediately and may
not resume operation again until the persons are outside the danger zone.
STOP button function
Actuation of the red STOP button activates the emergency-stop function in the
radio receiver on the crane. The emergency-stop function stops any potentially
dangerous movement of the crane. In particular the instructions contained in the
user manual/assembly instructions of the crane must be complied with for use
of the emergency-stop function. The radio system enters "STOP" mode when
the STOP button is pressed. No movement commands are transmitted. The
emergency-stop can be unlocked again by entering an electronic key (see section
8.4.1). This may only be done after the operator has checked that the hazardous
situation which resulted in actuation of the STOP button has been eliminated.
