Radio remote control maintenance
32
After any maintenance operation:
- always make sure that commands sent by the transmitting unit only ac-
tivate the corresponding expected operations
- if a unit has been opened, close it correctly, in order not to endanger its
protection degree from dust and water: check that the gasket is intact,
correctly overlay the two parts of the housing and tighten the screws.
10.4.1 Routine maintenance
Routine maintenance consists of operations needed to preserve the radio remote
control normal usage conditions, thus implementing fine-tuning, checks, planned
replacement actions that necessarily arise from the normal use of the product.
All given instructions must be followed correctly at each commissioning, that is:
- whenever the radio remote control and/or the machine is installed or assem-
bled
- whenever the machine location/position changes
- after special maintenance.
Routine maintenance carried out as described in this manual is fundamental for
using the radio remote control safely.
Special applications may need more specific routine maintenance actions to be
carried out at different periods (i.e. if the working environment is particularly dirt,
in case of heavy applications or if the system is used very frequently, some main-
tenance actions may be required more frequently, depending on the decision of
the person in charge for safety in the worksite).
10.4.2 Daily routine maintenance
Before starting to work:
- make sure that the battery housing and the battery contacts are always clean
- make sure that the gaskets, bellows and caps of the actuators (joysticks, se-
lectors and pushbuttons) are intact, soft and elastic
- make sure that the transmitting unit panel symbols can be easily recognised
and replace the panel if necessary
- check that the three plates on the transmitting unit are readable and intact
- make sure that the mechanical operation of the STOP pushbutton is correct.
During normal operation:
- check structural integrity of the transmitting unit
- make sure that materials that could endanger the transmitting unit usage and
safety (such as concrete, sand, lime, dust) do not deposit on it.
