Operation – Electrical Systems
This chapter describes the operation of hook-lifts that are electrically controlled. For inform-
ation about pneumatically controlled hook-lifts, see "Operation – Air Systems", on page 19.
The hook-lift can be controlled by a cab mounted controller or a radio controller. Radio con-
trollers are an extra option. For further information see "Radio Controllers", on page 23.
Electrically controlled systems have a control panel with integrated control stick, called the CBW
control unit. In pneumatic systems, indication isvia an LED display and the control stick is a sep-
arate unit. For more information about the CBW control unit, see below. For more information
about pneumaticsystems, see "Operation – Air Systems", on page 19.
CBW Controller
The CBW controller has both a display and control
stick, as shown, and is used to control allfunctions of
the hook-lift.
Certain functions, such as the operation of the
hydraulic pump, can be installed on the cab instru-
ment panel, either in addition or separate from the
CBW controller, as required.
The CBW control unit has the following main com-
ponents.
1. Emergency Stop
2. User Interface
3. Control stick
4. Mounting bracket
5. Screen lock screw
The emergency stop button is used in case of an emergency. Once pressed, all functions of the
hook-lift that could cause injury are disabled. To restore operation the system must be restar-
ted.
The user interface of the CBW controller has a 2.8 inch colour display. It is configurable. It is pos-
sible to display one of five different page set-ups. Each page set-up can have six user defined
functions, such as turning lights on. For further information see "Page Set-Ups", on page 13.
The control stick is used to control the basic functions of the hook-lift, such as tipping. For
detailed information regarding its function, refer to "Control Stick Functions", on page 16.
