Manual Control Unit (Emergency Track Operation only)
A manual control device for track operation is provided with the machine to allow the operator to
bypass the Radio Controller in the event of a controller malfunction.
When connected to the machine, this devise will allow the operator to raise and lower the
flailhead and manoeuvre the mower in any direction.
This feature is primarily for use in an emergency situation to allow transport of the machine in
the event of a sudden breakdown or for diagnosing an issue with the controller.
When operated in this mode the machine will only travel at minimum speed and all other control
features are deactivated.
To use this control the unit must first be connected to the electronic ignition box, refer to the
following page for details.
WARNING!
The manual track control is for emergency situations and troubleshooting
purposes only – never attempt to use this feature for normal work operations.
