Power:
The power switch for both the hardwire pendants and the FM receiver is located on the
rear of the relay panel which is on the street side of the crane.
Transmitter Layout: The red light to the left of the Power On/Off button indicates low
transmitter battery. As the battery runs down, the light will begin to flash. It will flash increasingly
faster as the battery power decreases. (see “Charging the Transmitter”)
The green light to the right of the Power On/Off button indicates that the unit is
transmitting. This light will flash when a function is activated.
In addition to the two lights mentioned above there are four function toggle switches
(three on PR models). These functions from left to right are used to raise and lower the boom,
raise and lower the hoist cable, rotate the crane and extend and retract the boom.
Power On/Off Button: To turn the transmitter on, press and release the Power On/Off button.
To turn the unit off, press and release the power button again. When this button is pressed both
the red battery low and the green transmit light will flash alternately and stop flashing once the
unit is either on or off.
Function Switches: To operate a function, toggle one of the function switches with either the
thumb of the hand holding the unit or the thumb or fingers of the opposite hand.
Operation Failure:
If the crane does not operate as expected, observe the red light on the receiver and refer
to the front panel for explanation. The codes are further explained in the Diagnostics section of
this manual.
Charging the Transmitter:
The transmitter can be charged using one of three methods. It can be charged with the
cigarette lighter charger, the pendant cable or the optional AC adapter (P/N 366505000). To
charge the transmitter with the pendant cable, the crane must have electrical power. The crane
can be operated by pendant or by FM remote therefore the battery can be charged without
suspending operation of the crane.
