between different machine
modes and configurations.
The key can be removed to
lock the machine into a set
mode/configuration if
required.
Please refer to the RCI
Operators Manual for further
information.
Rail Axle Deploy
Lever
This Lever must be
used in conjunction with
the RCI rail axle
selector screen.
NOTE: The Machine
must be slewed over
one chassis end or the
other to deploy/retract
the rail axles.
Please refer to the RCI
Operators Manual for
further information.
Stub Boom Release Button
This button must be used in conjunction with the supervisor key
switch.
This button must be used with caution. It overrides the stub boom
down motion cut when the dipper nose pin is above the stub boom
turret pin. This override therefore has the potential to allow the
operator to increase the machine overturning moment and
therefore should only be used in extreme circumstances when the
machine load radius cannot be reduced with the motion cuts active
but the load must be lowered to the ground.
NOTE: The effects of the use of this in the scenario should be
calculated and understood prior to use.
Please refer to the RCI Operators Manual for further information.
Quick Hitch Release Button
This button must be used in
conjunction with the supervisor
key switch.
NOTE: The attachment must be
landed to release the quick hitch.
Please refer to the RCI Operators
Manual for further information.
