Height Restric�on continued...
Once a height limit has been set, when the machine reaches the set limit the hydraulic li� circuits will
automa�cally be restricted.
The main display will show the ac�ve height limit in red below the current machine height display, which
is shown in blue . When the programmed maximum height is reached then machine movement will be
restricted. Any motion cuts that are inhibited will be shown in red on the depic�on of the machine on the
screen.

MANY CASES WILL BE HIGHER THAN THE BUCKET PIN HEIGHT. THE RCI MONITORS THE TOP OF THE
FORE BOOM, THE TOP OF THE DIPPER BOOM, AND THE END OF THE DIPPER BOOM. ON MONO BOOM
