1.3.5 HOPPER DOOR SENSOR
The hopper door is equipped with a limit
switch that detects if the side door is open.
On some units, this task is performed by a
proximity switch instead (optional).
When the hopper door is open, the pump can
not be engaged. That way, it is impossible to
use the packer or any hydraulic system.
Verify the proper working order and
adjustment of this limit /proximity switch.
NEVER ENTER THE HOPPER
AREA WHEN THE ENGINE IS
RUNNING AND THE HYDRAULIC
PUMP IS ENGAGED.
DANGER
1.3.6 ROOF PROXIMITY SWITCH
There’s aproximity switch that detects if the
roof is open or closed. If the roof is closed,
it is impossible to start the packer. That way,
you will avoid damages to the body. Also, the
roof MUST be open to raise the arms. If the
roof is closed, it won’t be possible to raise
the arms in order to avoid debris falling on the
roof.
1.3.7 FORKS AND ARMS PROXIMITY
SWITCHES
Some units are equipped with proximity
switches that indicate if the arms and forks
are fully parked and fold. One is located on
the arms axle and the other one is located on
the forks axle (on right-hand side). If the
forks are not fold when the arms are raising
and reaching a certain point, the Forks
Overhead warning light comes ON on the
dashboard.
The forks MUST be completely fold to avoid
any collision and to respect the size limitations
applicable in your area.
