Starting the 380V three-phase electric pump (OPTIONAL)
Diesel powered models can be equipped, on request, with a
380V three-phase electric pump.
To start the three-phase electric pump:
1)
Insert the 380 V plug of the power cable into socket (
A
)
on the chassis;
2)
Set the switches (
C
) shown in figure to ON position;
3)
Set the angular red switch (
F
) to ON position turning it
downwards or upwards. If the connection has been
successfully carried out it is possible to start the electric
pump as indicated in next paragraphs. On the contrary,
in the event of a phase fault in the electric power the
acoustic alarm is automatically enabled, and the electric
pump cannot be started. In this case it is possible to
compensate the power phases by turning the angular
red switch (
F
) on the electric case by 90°.
4)
To start the electric pump with the platform controls:
-
Select the platform control station with the key switch
on the ground control unit;
-
Unlock the mushroom button (
D
) turning by a ¼ of
turn clockwise;
-
Set the power selector (
B
) to "Electric" position;
-
Select the 380V power with selector (

N.B. The platform with 380V three-phase power can be operated only from the platform.
The operations carried out with 380V electric pump are slightly slower than those with diesel engine.
NOTE: The electric pump can be started only if the dead-man pedal is neither pressed nor enabled.
This means that the electric pump can be started only if the platform green warning light ON is
flashing.
WARNING!! Always check the position of the power cable during the movements.
Disconnect all electric power supplies before opening the cases.
