OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

TP-5211901-C

JUNE 2021

Safety Instruction – Roof Access!

 If the mast will be mounted to a vehicle, the operator must

provide a safe means to access the roof of the vehicle during installation.

Safety Instruction – Hose Installation!

 At all times while using hose during installation:

• Hose should be routed, mounted, and restrained to protect from damage

• Second-hand hose should not be used for installation

• Hose should not be bent at a radius less than specified by the manufacturer

• Hose should be marked to avoid hazards from incorrect connections

• The exhaust should be fitted with a silencer and directed away from personnel

• Hose should be routed and installed in such a way as to minimize torsion on the joints

• Hose mounting should be accomplished only by the use of tools to prevent readily 

disconnecting hose from the mast

Emergency Stow! 

Using the emergency stow button causes the actuator to lower mast without

regard to any faults, switches, or system interlocks. It is totally up to the operator to ensure safe

operation during an emergency stow attempt. When using the emergency stow button, normal

operation switches are disabled. The mast can be overdriven into saddle and cause damage to

the  unit.  Disengage  the emergency  stow  button  when  the  payload  reaches  the  saddle  and is

tight. Do not drive mast beyond this position.

Pressurized Device Hazard! 

Completely lower the mast, depressurize, and shut down power

before disassembly. Mast disassembly prior to depressurization may release pressurized air jet.

Safety Instruction – Remote Control!

 The equipment is subject to remote control and may be

operated at any time. Persons working on the equipment should take appropriate precautions to

ensure that any unexpected movement does not occur as this could lead to injury.

Equipment  Damage!

  Each  positioner  contains  a  1.85  amp  self-resetting  circuit  breaker  to

protect  the  PC  board.  Do  not  disassemble  the  positioner  side  plates,  or  separate  from  the

pedestal. Doing so will break the environmental seal and potentially cause improper stop limit

settings. This will void the warranty.

Safety Instruction – Lightning!

 Lightning protection is not part of this system. A proper means

of electrical grounding should be provided. Failure to observe this warning could result in death

or serious injury.

Safety  Instruction  –  High  Pressure  Spray!

  Do  not  expose  the  positioner  to  high  pressure

spray. Equipment damage may occur.
