CONTROL PANEL (P) DESCRIPTION
• WORKING MODE SELECTOR (6)
On delivery this key can be found in the Operators Manual wallet, in the back of
the seat. It is important to understand its use, before using this key:
A) Movements enabled.
Personnel or material lifting. The machine can be used as a lifting device
(installing the forks, the fly jib, etc.). The key must be removed.
B) Road travel.
All controls of the hydraulic circuit are disabled with the exception of the
steering. This function should be used to prevent any accidental operation of
controls during road travel.
When this operating mode is selected, the system switches off display (D) in
the cab.
C) Emergency movements (control with a spring return to the "B" position)
The "C" position of selector (6) gives you all necessary movements to restore
transportability conditions in case of failure of one of the safety devices.
In the time span when emergency movements are enabled warning light
(209) on control panel "P1" switches on in a steady mode, red warning light
(5) con control panel "P" switches on in an intermittent mode, while the
audible alarm remains off.
The safety device bypass function can be enabled in any configuration or
operating condition of your machine
NOTE! To enable the emergency controls on your machine you need to turn selector (6) to position 'C' and
hold it in that position. Then you have 10 seconds to carry out all necessary manoeuvres to restore safe operating
conditions. This function is shown on display (D) in the cab with information window 'X', containing the 'emergency
movements' symbol and a timer with a count-down feature.
After these 10 seconds the system disables all emergency movements and automatically re-enables the overturn
prevention system on your machine. To be allotted another 10 seconds you need to release selector (6) and then
repeat the command.
WARNING! Correct and safe use of the isolation system is ultimately the responsibility of the person in charge
of the operation (e.g. owner, site manager). You are advised to keep the key in a safe place, in order to prevent its
incorrect and unsafe use. It is only possible to extract the key with the selector (6) in "A" position.
