NOTE:
The Deka 908D battery originally supplied with the
crane has a reserve capacity rating of 430 minutes.
•
Do not exceed 16 volts while charging (or 32 volts
when charging two batteries in series).
•
Charge until a 2-hour period results in no increase in
voltage or decrease in current.
NOTE:
Overcharging will shorten a battery’s life.
•
If battery becomes hot to the touch or if it gasses
violently, temporarily halt charging or reduce the
charging current.
Storage
When the crane is left idle for prolonged periods, the
batteries should be periodically charged.
When storing a battery, make sure it is fully charged to
prevent sulfation and the possibility of freezing.
Follow your battery dealer’s recommendations.
BATTERY DISCONNECT SWITCH
The battery disconnect switch (see
) disconnects
the positive side of the battery.
To operate the battery disconnect switch:
•
Turn the knob clockwise to connect the battery circuit.
•
Turn the knob counterclockwise to disconnect the
battery circuit for the following reasons:
-
When servicing the crane’s electrical control system
-
To prevent batteries from discharging when the
crane is stored for extended periods of time
-
To prevent the crane from being started by
unauthorized personnel
The handle of the battery disconnect switch can be
padlocked to prevent unauthorized use
.
ENGINE CONTROLS
See the engine start procedure in Section 3 of the MLC650
Operator Manual for engine startup. See the Cummins
engine manual for detailed engine instructions.
The engine is started and stopped with the engine key
switch.
The speed of the crane motors and actuating cylinders
depends on engine speed and equipment control handle
movement. Engine speed is controlled with the hand or foot
throttle, and is monitored by a speed sensor.
The emergency stop button (when pushed) stops the engine
and applies all brakes. Any operating functions will stop
abruptly.
CAUTION
Avoid Electronic Control Module Malfunction!
Before opening the battery disconnect, make sure that the
engine ignition switch has been off for 5 minutes. This will
avoid engine fault codes and undesirable operation.
CAUTION
Avoid Control System Damage!
Before welding:
•
Disconnect the battery cables at batteries.
•
Disconnect the cabling from any control module
enclosures that are in the vicinity of the welding.
Do not rely on the disconnect switch to protect the crane’s
electronic systems when welding.
