IIV-9. Operation of the Remote Control Pendant
1. All functions of the vibro can be controlled by the hand held pendant. It is the choice of the
crew as to where best to locate the pendant. Some prefer to give it to the crane operator so
he can control all functions. Others prefer to give it to one of the ground crew so that he can
position himself close to the work at hand. A 50 foot cord is provided as standard equipment.
If this is not long enough, additional 50 foot sections can be added. Should the pendant
become damaged, all functions can be manually operated. See Section VII-3, Page 7-8 in
this manual for more details on operation. See Section VII-3A, Page 7-9 of this manual for
wiring diagram and pendant components.
