Joystick Controls
Arm Joystick
The joystick is used to control the Versa Hand
TM
arm of the Automizer
TM
. It can be located either on
the console at the center of the cab or near the right-hand side door. In some units, two joysticks are
installed in the cab: one on the console, the other near the right-hand side door.
The controls on the joystick are the handle, the buttons on the top and front, and the deadman
switch.
The handle is used to control the horizontal and vertical movements of the arm’s two main
components.
The top buttons are used to control the opening and closing movement of the gripper: the right
button is used to open the gripper; the left button to close the gripper.
The buttons on the front are used to control the Auto-Dump
TM
feature (optional).
N
OTE
:
The Auto-Dump feature is optional. Therefore, the front buttons are functional only on
vehicles equipped with this feature.
The deadman switch is used as a safety device to ensure that every movement of the arm is absolutely
wanted and controlled by the operator. That is, if the operator is not pressing the deadman switch
while trying to move the arm with the joystick, no movement will occur. With such a safety feature, an
accidental movement of the joystick will not be transmitted to the arm.
Joysticks operate at 45° and 90° angles. As a result, you can perform two functions at the same time;
for example, you can move the arm and the grabber simultaneously.
