Alignment control
A spring-loaded contact pin and an inductive sensor at each
twist-lock is used for control of alignment against one or two con-
tainers . The sidelift is fully aligned onto the container when the
contact pins on both sides have been depressed and the distance
between each pin and sensor is less than to 8 mm.
When lifting one container: When lamps 5 and 6 light up, the side
locking plates can be locked.
When lifting two containers: When lamps 3, 4, 5 and 6 light up,
the side locking plates can be locked.
N.B. It is possible to lock the side locking plates without in-
dication of alignment. Therefore, never lock before lamps 5
and 6 (one container) or 3, 4, 5 and 6 (two containers) light
up.
In the locked position for one or two containers, the red lamps 1
and 2 go out and at the same time the green lamps 6 and 7 light
up. During lift operation the lamps 3, 4, 7, 8 should always be
alight while 5 and 6 should be extinguished..
Checking of indicating lamps
1. Check that the contact pins are freely moveable in and out.
A pin which binds in the inner position may indicate correct
alignment although the sidelift is not in contact with the con-
tainer.
Lubricate the contact pins when needed.
2. Check that the indicating lamps 1 and 2 Red are alight when
the locking plates are released.
3. Check that the indicating lamps 3, 4, 5 and 6 Orange light up
at the alignment of two containers, alternatively 5 and 6 at
the alignment of one container..
4. Check that the lamps 7 and 8 Green light up when locking
the locking plates and that 1 and 2 Red go out.
5. The sensors 7 and 8, se illustration, for alignment should be
adjusted to give a signal when the contact pins are de-
pressed.
See Control and adjustment of alignment
against container, page 28.
