Operation
Loading operation
Pile pickup raised
As long as the pile pickup is raised sufficiently high, the R-Touch shows no warning
indicators. The safety circuit does not have any effect during loading process. The pile
pickup can be used without restriction as long as it does not fall below a specific mini-
mum height (e.g. on a frozen beet pile).
Pile pickup lowered
If the warning message "Pile pickup movement not permissible. Check the view direc-
tion" appears because the pile pickup is lowered, without any further actions the tele-
scopic arm can only be moved to the left/right and up/down. As soon as the telescopic
arm is extended or retracted the driver's seat must be rotated forward. The rotating
seat status indicator (1) on the R-Touch should turn green. The "Look forward" foot
switch (2) on the floor of the cabin must be pressed.
Pile pickup movement not permissible
The "Look forward" foot switch (2) must always be pressed and held if remaining beets
are being picked up. All rollers in the pickup will stop as soon as this foot switch is
released (dead-man circuit). The rollers can only be reactivated at the right joystick if
the rotating seat is rotated forward and the "Look forward" foot switch (2) is pressed.
The pile pickup can only be lifted as soon as the seat is rotated away from the central
area. All other functions of the pile pickup will be blocked.
If the rollers in the pickup are rotating and the pile pickup is lowered below the above-
mentioned height limit, the driver will still have time to rotate the driver's seat forward
until the green zero range is displayed on the R-Touch and to press the "Look forward"
foot switch (2). It takes a few seconds for the safety circuit to actuate. A visual display
on the R-Touch and an acoustic warning signal informs the driver of this period.
If the "Look forward" foot switch is continuously pressed (e.g. electrically bridged or
continuously mechanically pressed), the machine drive cannot be activated.
If the R-Touch shows this icon , the pile pickup must be rotated to the centre and
lifted before lifting the pickup.
