Radio Controllers
A radio operated controller can be bought as an option for all hook-lifts. These allow for oper-
ation of the hook-lift remotely. The operator does not need to be in the vehicle to operate the
hook-lift.
The use of a radio controller allows the operator to have a good visual overview of the lifting
operation. This can be beneficial in many aspects.
When the radio controller is active, the cab-controller, mounted inside the cab, can not be oper-
ated.
There are two types of radio controllers. One for electrical controlled hook-lift systems, see
"Operation – Electrical Systems", on page 23
. And one for air controlled hook-lift systems, see
"Operation – Air Systems", on page 27
Before Operation
Personnel must be trained in the use of radio controllers before being allowed to use
them. Serious injury or damage to the environment can result if a radio controller is
operated incorrectly.
The operator must make sure that they are fully aware of the surrounding environment and
equipment.
The operator must be fully focused on the operation of the controller and lifting equipment. Do
not operate the radio-controller when performing other tasks.
Make sure that a safe working distance of at least four meters exists around the lifting equip-
ment. Failure to do so can lead to serious injury.
Do not leave a radio controller unattended. When the controller is not in use, make sure it is
turned off.
Operation – Electrical Systems
Provided below is an overview of the radio controller for electrical controlled hook-
lift systems only. For information regarding radio controllers for air controlled sys-
tems, see
"Operation – Air Systems", on page 27
Operation of the hook-lift is made using the main control buttons 1-12, as shown
opposite.
