1.3 Operating positions.
The machine control system can be of two types:
- Control system with wired console on platform (remote control - standard);
- Control system with console connected via radio on platform (radio control - optional).
In both cases, the normal operating position is located on the platform while on the ground there is a
control station for the emergency recovery of the platform. However, it is possible to drive the machine
on foot during transfers.
1.3.1 Use with driver on foot.
Regardless of the type of control system (remote control or radio control), it is possible to remove the
control console from the platform, and drive the machine on foot when placing the machine or for loading
and unloading the machine from the means of transport.
- With the remote control outside its housing on the platform, all the machine controls are
allowed limited to the length of the connection cable;
- With the radio control (optional) outside its housing on the platform, the following commands
are allowed:
o If the platform load is less than 20 kg:
▪ All commands are allowed.
o If the platform load is greater than 20 kg:
▪ Variable track control, translation and turret levelling only if the arm is in
TRANSPORT POSITION;
▪ Controls for the development of the extensible structure (ascents / descents /
rotations) up to the limit of the TRANSPORT POSITION.
For machines equipped with the winch option, the operator drives the machine on foot in the following
ways:
- With remote control connected to the connector available on the ground control station;
- With radio control.
1.4 Power.
The machines are equipped with a hydraulic system through which the movement is obtained. The
machines can be set up with different energy sources based on the following:
- ELC version = Machine powered by lead-acid battery and electric pump;
- LTH version = Machine powered by lithium battery and electric pump;
- EVO version = Machine powered by a diesel engine and hydraulic pumps.
As an option, for the EVO and LTH versions, it is possible to have an electric pump powered by the mains
voltage.
In any case, both the hydraulic and electrical systems are equipped with all the necessary protections
(see electrical and hydraulic diagrams supplied as attachments to this manual).
