FAILURE TO FOLLOW INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WILL RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE,
SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH.
Verify proper installation, acceptable system back pressure and adequate brake circulation flow before operating
the Planematic drive.
1) The standard Planematic drive brake applies only in counterclockwise rotation as viewed from the motor end
of the unit. The drive has no brake during clockwise rotation. Ensure brake option is appropriate for particular
application.
2) The Planematic drive hydraulic motor is supplied through a single lever control valve with reverse, neutral
and forward positions. Drive speed is regulated by metering the control valve lever. Standard brake
automatically releases when driving in reverse direction and sets when control valve lever is returned to
neutral position.
Refer to OPTIONS section of this manual for explanation of optional brake configurations.
3) Verify installation and connection by slowly driving a full test load through a safe distance, forward and
reverse. Complete functional test by driving test load at full speed, forward and reverse, several times.
If Planematic drive does not function properly after following above procedure, refer to TROUBLESHOOTING
section of this manual.
