Wiring and Repair
Use an approved round crimp-style terminal when wiring the
terminals. Do not solder the terminal or connect the bare wires
directly.
Replace the cable if it is cracked or split.
When cutting or stripping wires, ensure that particles do not fall
into the enclosure.
Maintenance
On a continual basis, ensure that the interlock mechanism is
operating properly and that the buttons return to the off position
when released.
Inspect condition of pendant on a regular basis (dependent on
duty cycle).
Safe Crane Operating Practices
When moving a load with the crane, stand facing the
suspended load; move the load away from you.
Perform only one operation at a time.
When you are not using the pendant station, hang the unit as
shown on page 7; do not let it lay horizontally.
If a problem occurs during the operation of the pushbutton
station, stop operation immediately and contact the person in
charge of maintenance. Prior to inspection or repair of the
pendant station, disconnect power at source following
lockout/tagout procedures as outlined in ANSI Z244.1.
Check the enclosure and insulating material for any damage.
Environment
Do not expose the unit to cold blasts or air that might cause
condensation (e.g. air conditioning duct).
Do not expose the unit to cleaning solvents that will penetrate
the unit’s enclosure.
Operating SBP2 Pendant Pushbutton Station Safely
When using a pendant station, take the following precautions:
Pre-Operation Inspection
1. Ensure that the overall condition of the unit’s exterior is sound.
2. Ensure that the buttons function normally (return to the off position
when released) and are labeled properly for function.
3. Remove any dirt, sand, or moisture buildup.
4. Ensure the cable is not damaged.
5. Ensure that the strain relief wire supporting the cable is installed (if
applicable).
The pendant station should be installed at a height of approximately 3’-
6” from the ground, as shown below.
