6. MAINTENANCE OF RADIO REMOTE CONTROL EQUIPMENT
The product you have purchased is manufactured with top quality materials that ensure the perfect
functioning and operation of the remote control. Like any other machine or equipment, the remote
control requires a few basic precautions that should be respected.
ATTENTION!:
if any anomaly is detected in the operation of the equipment, it must be
put out of service immediately.
In order to increase the life of your equipment as much as possible, and to avoid unnecessary repair
costs, we recommend that you carefully follow the following conservation and maintenance tips:
Avoiding unnecessary hits on the equipment.
Use the attachment accessories, shoulder strap, properly and adjust it so that the use of the
equipment is comfortable and safe.
Although the equipment has a high degree of water tightness (IP65), it shouldn't be totally or
partially submerged and shouldn't be left in places where it could flood if it rains.
The pushbuttons of the set are made of an elastic material to give them elasticity, texture and
water tightness, so you must take special care to avoid touching them with sharp objects that
could damage the structure of the button. When the button is worn-out or damaged it must be
replaced immediately.
It’s also advisable not to leave the remote unnecessarily exposed to the sun's rays.
Check that the battery holder contacts are free of dirt and rust and that they exert the spring return
force correctly.
ATTENTION!:
before any manipulation proceed to deactivate the main switch of the
machine.
Generally, it’s advisable to carry out a complete revision of the water tightness devices that protect
both the receiver and the transmitter from bad weather conditions every now and then. It’s advisable
that this revision is done by a Technical Assistance Service accredited by ITOWA, since a bad
waterproofing can cause irreparable damage to the equipment.
In the case of the remote control, pay particular attention to the joints and rubber protections of the
different drives, replacing them immediately if they have been cut or suffered other damages.
¡
ATTENTION!:
Original spare parts should be used for any repairs, and the safety
features as well as those of the UHF transmitter and receiver, should never be altered.
To test the function of the active safety, simply actuate the EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON on the
transmitter while it is running. The general contactor must fall down immediately.
To check the operation of the passive safety, disconnect the power or remove the battery from the
transmitter. The general contactor should drop after within a maximum of 1.6 seconds.
