Radio Remote Control Features
Radio Remote Sleep Mode
The radio remote control enters sleep mode after two minutes of inactivity. Activate a toggle
switch to re-link the transmitter to the receiver. After re-linking, activate the desired toggle to
continue operation.
E-Stop Button
The Radio remote control is equipped with an emergency stop button. If a situation arises that
requires the immediate stoppage of crane functionality, press down on the red Emergency Stop
button located on the top of the remote control. To resume operation, activate any function to
restart the transmitter.
Power on Demand Mode (P.O.D)
When the optional engine speed control is toggled on, the crane controller will automatically
ramp the engine speed up to high idle while the crane is actively being operated. During periods
of inactivity the engine speed will be returned to low idle. See the Installation, Assembly Drawings,
and Parts Manual for mode selection wiring.
Docking Station/Charge Station
The radio remote docking station also serves as a charger for the rechargeable battery. It is
important to return the remote to the docking station to keep the battery charged between jobs.
Radio Remote Battery Replacement
Occasionally the rechargeable battery pack in the handheld
transmitter will need to be replaced. The battery pack is located in
the handle portion of the radio transmitter. Unscrew the cap from the
bottom of the remote and slide the battery pack out. Replace with
the new rechargeable battery and screw the cap onto the bottom of
the remote.
Magnet
A series of magnets are integrated into the back housing of the radio
remote. These magnets allow you to temporarily attach the radio to
metal surfaces for your convenience.
Radio Remote Backup Cord
If the handheld transmitter has a system problem that makes the radio function un-usable, use of
the back-up cord may be necessary.
Death or serious injury will result from touching tethered remote if the crane,
load, or vehicle becomes electrically charged. Always maintain safe clearance from high voltage
power sources.
1. Locate the backup control cord. Most likely it is in the crane compartment, or in the cab behind
the seat.
2. Remove the battery holder from the remote handle and place the similar looking end of the
back-up cord in the bottom of the transmitter handle.
3. Attach the other end of the back-up cord to the connector currently used by the antenna on
the control receiver. The control receiver is located on the back of the crane mast.
