1.5. Control panels
The machine is equipped with two control panels:
▪ on the platform for normal use of the machine.
▪ On the turret (or on the ground) you can find the emergency controls to lower or stop the machine in emergency situations,
a key-selector to select the control panel and to start the machine.
1.6. Drive power
The machines can be powered by:
▪ Electro-hydraulic system composed of rechargeable batteries, electric pump and electric drive motors equipped with
automatic parking brake.
▪ Hybrid system composed of rechargeable batteries, electric pump and electric drive motors equipped with automatic
parking brake and additional Diesel motor generator. Hybrid machines are identified by the initials "ED".
In any case both the hydraulic and the electric systems are equipped with all necessary protections (see wiring and hydraulic circuit
diagrams attached to this manual).
1.7. Machine life, demolition and decommissioning.
The machine has been designed to last for 10 years in normal operating environments, if properly used and serviced. Within this
period, the manufacturer must carry out a complete inspection/overhaul.
If disposal of the unit is necessary, comply with current local regulations.
In Italy, the demolition/decommissioning must be notified to the local ASL / USL or ARPA.
The machine consists mainly of metal parts which are easy to be identified (steel for the most parts, and aluminium for the
hydraulic blocks); thus, we can state that the machine can be recycled at 90%.
European standards and those transposed by the member countries relating to respect for the environment
and the disposal of wastes envisage heavy administrative and penal fines in case of infringement.
In case of demolition/decommissioning, carefully keep to the provisions of applicable regulations,
especially as regards materials such as hydraulic oil and batteries.
