3.2 Product description
The electro-mechanical, battery supplied POWER 12 unit has been created to operate harvesting tools. The scheme “PRODUCT
ASSEMBLY” POSSIBILITIES (in par. 2.1.1) shows the possible combinations among power unit, extension pole and harvesting
head, in order to
fi
nd the best solution for the task to be carried out.
The power unit is
fi
tted with an energy saving and a mechanical parts protecting system, automatically decreasing the tool speed
after 6 seconds since it has got out of the branches, this way limiting its wear-and-tear. On the contrary, when the tool penetrates
the branches, it automatically reaches the selected speed again.
The unit can be operated by two kinds of 12 V battery: either a lead or a lithium battery. The latter is carried in an ergonomic
backpack. The battery capacity (ampere) determines the work duration only. The power unit is composed by a hand grip body,
a gearbox and an electronic control card. On the hand grip body (1) there are an ON/OFF switch (7), which starts and stops the
tool, a speed selector (8), which varies the engine rotation speed (either 1140 or 1230 rpm) and a red led light (9), which shows
if the tool is on or off.
On the body there is a connector (4), which, by means of a cable, joins the power unit with the battery. The lead battery is
fi
tted
with a 15 m cable (14) and connecting clamps (6). The lithium battery is
fi
tted with a 1.5 m cable (15).
On the top of the hand grip body (1) there is a clamp connection (3) for the
fi
xed (12) or telescopic (11) extension pole, which
transmits motion to the tool.
