ABOUT THIS MACHINE
It is always good practice to become familiar with
the components of the machine you are using.
OPERATOR’S STATION
Almost all the controls for running this machine
are located in the Operator’s Station. This
includes but is not limited to those on the logic
box and the main control panel, as well as the
hand controller and the propulsion lever.
Depending on the machine you are on, it is either
a left-hand or right-hand machine.
Under no circumstances are there to be more
riders on this machine than seats available.
Always use your seat belt when sitting in the
operator seat.
For additional information concerning the controls
used in the Operator’s Station including the hand
controllers and Propulsion lever, refer to
Operator Station Controls later in this section.
WORKHEAD
Each workhead assembly consists of the Pulling
Frame (the A-shaped frame shown in Figure 1)
and the Claw Housing (shown in Figure 2). Two
pulling claws straddle the rail and work in unision
to pull line spikes, anchor spikes, and hairpin
spikes (optional equipment required) without
changing pattern.
The Up/Down position of the workhead is
determined by limit switches mounted to the side
of the pulling frame.
There are two lockup pins located on the
workhead. These should be locked during travel.
See lockup requirements in the LOCKUP
section of this manual.
PROPULSION/DRIVE SYSTEM
The machine is dual axle outboard driven,
comprised of a single chain, two drive sprockets
and a hydraulic motor.
BOOM/WINCH (OPTIONAL)
The boom/winch system is in place to allow the
operator to easily lift bags of anchors into the
Anchor Bin. The winch is capable of lifting loads
up to 300 lbs. The boom and winch should be
locked up for travel or when not being used. See
lockup requirements in the
Lockup section of this
manual.
