Risk of injury!
If the control system is not fitted properly, the machine could move uncontrollably. The
machine’s engine shall not be started before the control system is completely fitted and
its signals are verified.
Starting the control system
Start the control system as follows:
•
Prior to start, all modules and cables are to be fitted correctly.
•
Check fuses, i.e. make sure that the supply voltage to the modules is equipped with
the correct fuse.
•
Make sure that connections for supply voltage and return lines are correct in the
cable’s conductor joint.
•
Make sure an emergency stop is installed.
The emergency stop should disconnect the supply voltage to all modules. Alterna-
tively, the emergency stop may also shut off the diesel engine or a dump valve, and
with that, depressurize the hydraulic system.

Make sure no one is in dangerous proximity to the vehicle to avoid
injuries when it starts.
Prepare for the initial system start as follows:
•
The engine for the hydraulic system’s pump shall be in off position.
•
Make sure that all connectors are properly connected.
•
Turn on the control system.
•
Make sure that voltage is being supplied to all modules; the power/status diode shall
be illuminated on all modules. Also, make sure that the master is in contact with all
modules by reading the master’s display.
•
Make sure the emergency stop is functioning properly.
Start the system
Start the system as follows:
•
Start the engine for the hydraulic system’s pump, assuming that the above men-
tioned inspections have been carried out and shown correct values.
•
Calibrate and adjust input and output signals according to the instructions related to
the master menu system and check each and every output function carefully.
