5.2 Rated Capacity Indicator Mode
In the RCI MODE the top line will display the current bucket pin radius and the maximum safe working load at that radius. The bar
graph on the lower line will indicate the proximity of the current load to the maximum available safe working load. Approach to SWL and
OVERLOAD are indicated by audible and visual indicators.
SWL
is the
maximum
load that can be
lifted at the currently displayed radius.
SWL is shown in TONNES
Rad
ius is the horizontal distance
between the slew centre of the
machine and the bucket pin
(Lifting point), and is displayed in
metres.
The bar graph shows the
percentage of the maximum lifting
capacity currently being utilised.
The more „bars‟ shown, the
greater the load suspended.
The number to the left of the lower
line is the DUTY number. Unless
multi-duty operation is available,
this value will be 1.
If the load suspended is between
102.5% and 110.0% of the SWL
both the amber SWL and the red
OVERLOAD indicators will light, and the
alarm will sound. The bar graph will be at
the end of its scale.
If the load suspended is between
92.5% and 97.5% of the SWL
the amber SWL indicator will light, and the
internal alarm will sound. The bar graph
will be almost at the end of its scale.
The SWL as displayed assumes that the load is
suspended directly below the bucket pin. The
weight of the bucket, if fitted, and any lifting
devices, (e.g. a quick hitch) must be deducted
from this value. The bucket cylinder and control
linkage is assumed to be present.
