OFF suspends communication. To go UP or DOWN, first Press the CMD button and the desired direction button
within 5 seconds. This is a safety action that prevents accidental powering of the ascender if the action buttons on
the remote transmitter are accidently engaged such as can happen if someone puts the remote in their pocket
4. The remote will override local, manual commands. That is, when the Remote Control is commanded, the Local
Control is disabled.
5. The effective range of the Remote is approximately 750 feet; however, the range may be reduced for some
conditions such as metal shielding.

Battery
The transmitter utilizes a standard CR2032 lithium button cell. In normal use, it will provide 1 to 2 years of operation. Access for
replacement is accomplished by gently prying apart the two halves of the Keyfob at the seam (fingernails or a coin will do). Once
the unit is open, remove the battery by sliding it out from beneath the retainer. There may be the risk of explosion if the battery is
replaced by the wrong type. Replace it with the same type of battery while observing the polarity shown in the adjacent figure.

Pendant Remote (Tower Version) and Bite switch and bite Switch (optional)
The PQ 500-TR is equipped with a hard-wired pendant remote. There
may also be an optional bite switch to allow for complete hands-free
operation. The pendant provides all of the machine controls in a
separate, hardwired remote control unit. It allows the operator to be
suspended below the ascender as in a Boson’s chair. This is
particularly handy when using in overhead configurations and in some
communications towers or large steel buildings where excessive
microwave or other electrical signals interfere with the operation of
the wireless remote.
Operations:
1. Prepare the PowerQuick 500 for pendant operation by
setting the UP/DN lever to the UP position.
