Ballymore PLD PLUS - Braking and Emergency Systems

- Braking
THE BRAKING PERFORMANCE DEPENDS ON THE TRACK CONDITONS AND
THE LOAD CONDITONS OF THE PLD
The braking function can be activated in several ways:
• By moving the accelerator button (13) back to the initial ‘0’ position or by releasing
the button, the regenerative braking is activated. The PLD brakes until it stops.
• By moving the accelerator button (13) from one driving direction directly to the
opposite direction, the PLD brakes regenerative until it starts travelling into the
opposite direction.
• The PLD brakes, if the tiller is moved up or down to the braking zones (‘B’). If the
tiller is released, the tiller moves automatically up to the upper baking zone (‘B’).
The PLD brakes until it stops.
• The safety (belly) button (12) prevents the operator from being crushed. If this button
is activated, the PLD decelerates and/ or starts travelling into the backwards direction
(‘Bw.’) for a short distance and stops. Please consider, that this button also operates,
if the PLD is not travelling and the tiller is in the operating zone.
- Malfunctions
If there are any malfunctions or the PLD is inoperative, please stop using the PLD and
activate the emergency button (3) by pushing it. If possible, park the PLD in a safe area,
and press the E-Stop button.
Inform the manager and/or call for service.
- Emergency
In emergencies, push the emergency button (3). All electrical functions will be stopped.
Keep safe distance.
