MACHINE HYDRAULIC CONTROLS
•
A series of hydraulic controls are located
on the radio control transmitter and the
machine and are clearly marked for
operation. DO NOT USE THE
MACHINE MOUNTED CONTROLS
TO GRIND STUMPS. The machine
mounted control levers are to be used
only for positioning the machine at slow
speeds and to check hydraulic operation.
RIGHT TRACK – LEFT TRACK
•
The first two machine levers, control the
forward and reverse movement of the
right and left tracks. Use both controls
in the same direction (Fwd/Fwd or
Rev/Rev) to move machine forward or
reverse. Use controls opposite
(Rev/Fwd or Fwd/Rev) of each other to
turn machine either right or left. When
rotating the machine, do not leave one
track stationary while rotating the other
one around it as this could cause the
machine to jump a track. If it is desired
to spin the machine, counter-rotate the
tracks.
SPEED
•
The Speed switch on the machine
changes the track drive motors from low
to high gear. In low gear the tracks have
maximum torque and more climbing
power while in high gear the tracks
provide maximum speed.
LIFT
•
This lever lifts the cutter head up and
down for positioning the cutter wheel at
the top of the stump and grinding it well
below ground level.
