Drill Pendant
WARNING
Only an authorized person(s) should operate the
drill pendant. Personal injury, harm to others, or
damage to the machine could occur if this pendant
is misused.
The drill pendant (also referred to as the life-jacket pendant)
is designed to allow you rudimentary control over the drilling
features when connected to the front receptacle, should the
operator platform controls become non-responsive. You can
also plug this pendant into the drive-pendant receptacle at
the rear control panel, in the event that the drive pendant
malfunctions to obtain basic movement functions at slow
speed.
Refer to
for the location of the drill pendant.
