REMOTE CONTROLS
RADIO CONTROL
The remote control transmitter and receiver provided with this machine have matched radio
signals that prevents unintentional operation by stray signals. However stray radio signals,
high voltage power lines and other forms of interference can cause the remote control sys-
tem to stop working or work erratically. To prevent injury to personnel or machine damage,
do not use the remote control system when interference is present. Under these conditions
the machine can be safely operated by using the manual controls.
TRANSMITTER
The remote control transmitter is equipped with an LED light to indicate the operating con-
dition of the transmitter. When the transmitter is switched to the on position, the LED light
glows steadily GREEN for 3 seconds followed by a rapidly blinking GREEN light (about 2
blinks per second.) This indicates that the unit is operating normally and that the batteries
are in good condition.
WARNING:
If the LED fails to light when the unit is switched to the on posi-
tion or the LED glows RED, the batteries are low and must be replaced before
machine operation begins. If the LED turns to RED during use, safely stop all
machine operations and replace the batteries. Failing to do so may cause the
operator to lose control of the machine. Use only non-rechargeable AA Alkaline
batteries in this transmitter.
WARNING: Improper operation of these controls can cause serious injury to
personnel and damage equipment. Do not allow anyone to operate this equip-
ment before completely reading the manual.
CARE AND HANDLING OF SYSTEM
Transmitter should be turned off when not in use.
Do not store transmitter in direct sunlight or wet areas.
Handle transmitter with care. Do not drop, throw or subject to severe physical shock.
For reliable radio operation, stay within working radius. (For individual working dis-
tance refer to your OEM Manual.) Specied operating ranges are based upon line-of
-sight conditions. Physical obstructions especially those with high metal content, may
reduce operating range. Avoid obstructions or relocate receiver antenna.
Transmitter should face towards receiver antenna.
