Control, operation
Working with the machine
–Do not steer, brake, accelerate and shift or move and load the attachment of the machine in a jerky manner.
–Match the machine speed to the travel route to avoid vibration impacts.
•Decrease the speed when driving on pathless terrain;
•Drive around obstacles and avoid very impassable terrain.
–Keep the quality of the terrain where the machine is working and travelling in good order:
•Remove large rocks and obstacles;
•Fill furrows and holes;
•To establish and retain suitable terrain conditions, keep machines available and allow for sufficient time.
–Travel longer distances (i.e. on public roads) with suitable (medium) speed.
–For machines, which are frequently used for travel, consider use of auxiliary ride control systems, and also monitor speed to minimize buildup of "pitching" vehicle movement.
3.4.2Low idle automatic
The idle automatic function automatically reduces the engine speed without actuation of the joystick or the travel pedal. This helps save fuel and reduces the noise level. By touching the joystick or the pedals, the engine speed returns to the initial level.
This function is activated with the low idle automatic button: Press the button. The idle automatic is activated. The indicator light in the switch flashes. Press the button again. The idle automatic is deactivated. The indicator light in the switch is off.
3.4.3Working position
1 Brake pedal (operating with retainer S263 Travel direction switch
S16 Switch / parking brake S75 Switch / oscillating axle locking mechanism Caution!
Setting the machine into working position:
If the parking brake is applied during work, the drive might become damaged. A buzzer sound indicates that the parking brake is applied during operation. For braking during work, use the brake pedal (operating brake).
Set the travel direction switch S263 to its neutral position 0
Press the brake pedal 1 to the stop and ensure that the retainer (see arrow) is engaged.
Release the parking brake S16
Lock the oscillating axle (switch S75 to position 1).
As a general rule, work with the machine must be performed across the rigid axle.
3.4.4Operating the working attachment
Caution!
The machine is equipped with PCSA controls as standard. On request, the machine can be fitted with a different control system (e.g. LIEBHERR control). For such machines, observe the instructions in the respective separate operating manual.
The left joystick (1) controls the stick and swivelling movements:
–Movement in direction a and b: Stick is extended or retracted.
–Movement in direction c and d: Uppercarriage is swivelled to the left or right.
The right joystick (2) controls the boom and grapple movements:
–Movement in direction e and f: Grapple is closed or opened.
–Movement in direction g and h: Boom is lifted or lowered.
Moving the stick:
The stick is moved by operating the left joystick 1
Push the joystick back a: Stick moves in direction a
Push the joystick forward b Stick moves in direction b
Moving the boom:
The boom is moved by operating the right joystick 2
Push the joystick back g: Boom is lifted.
Push the joystick forward h: Boom is lowered.
Operating the grapple:
Danger
Risk of accident!
It is strictly forbidden to guide the tool attachment by hand.
Move the joystick to the left e: Grapple is closed.
Move the joystick to the right f: Grapple is opened.
Operating tilting system (optional equipment)
The tilting system of the industrial stick is operated with the right joystick 2
Move the joystick to the left e: The working tool is tilted inwards. Move the joystick to the right f: The working tool is tilted outwards.
Combined movements:
Diagonal movement of a joystick results in a combination of the associated working movements. Operators can thus complete different attachment movements simultaneously.
