WARNING: Operators must read and understand the Operator’s Guide (Part No. 6850045) before being allowed to operate the TFC™ system equipped attachment. If the operator does not understand any part of the operator’s guide, a supervisor should be asked for an explanation. If it is still not understood, the equipment should not be used.
• Connection into the truck electrical system for power. The electrical circuit should be 12V, 3A nominal power supply or be installed with a voltage converter kit. The TFC™ system includes a constant power and a keyed power connection. For best results and instant “On” feature, connection to keyed power is required.

TFC™ SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The TFC™ system is a touch screen system that allows the operator to select the product and load configuration to automatically apply proper clamp force to the load. The TFC™ system is an improvement over the three-position valve option, offering many more settings.
