General Radio controlled overhead cranes and other ma-terial handling equipment operate in several di-rections. They are large, bulky pieces of equip-ment that efficiently handle heavy loads at high speeds. Quite frequently, the equipment is oper-ated in areas where people are working on the floor below. The crane operator must exercise extreme caution at all times. Workers must con-stantly be alert to avoid accidents. The following rules have been included to indicate how your careful and thoughtful actions may prevent inju-ries, damage to equipment, or even save a life. If radio controlled material handling equipment is operated from the cab, special care must be taken to secure the transmitter. Refer to section titled Section 1-9. Boarding The Crane for specific safety rules. 1-4. Persons Authorized To Operate Radio Controlled Cranes Only properly trained persons designated by management should be permitted to operate radio controlled cranes. Radio controlled cranes should not be operated by any person who cannot read or understand signs, notices and operating instructions that pertain to the crane. Radio controlled cranes should not be operated by any person with insufficient eyesight or hearing, or any person who may be suffering from a disorder or illness, or is taking any medi-cation that may cause loss of crane control. 1-5. Training Checklist For Crane Operators Anyone being trained to operate a radio con-trolled crane should possess, as a minimum, the following knowledge and skills before operating the crane: 1. The operator should have knowledge of hazards pertaining to crane operation. 2. The operator should have knowledge of the safety rules for radio controlled cranes. 3. The operator should have the ability to judge distance of moving objects. 4. The operator should have knowledge of the radio transmitter. 5. The operator should know how to properly test limit switches. 6. The operator should know, where authorized, instructions for plugging motions. 7. The operator should have knowledge of the use of crane warning lights and alarms. 8. The operator should have knowledge of observing crane signal lights. 9. The operator should be trained to avoid striking any obstructions. 10. The operator should have knowledge of the proper clearance of lifts or hooks before moving bridge or trolley. 11. The operator should have knowledge of the proper storage space for the radio control box when not in use. 12. The operator should be trained in transferring the radio control box to another person. 13. The operator should be trained how and when to report unsafe or unusual operating conditions. 14. The operator should be trained how to exhibit caution in approaching bridge or trolley bumpers. 15. The operator should know equipment capacity. 16. The operator should be trained in making lifts below floor level.

Telemotive MLTX Transmitter Instruction Manual—03/1/2006 5 17. The operator should be trained in making side pulls. 18. The operator should know how to keep himself and other people clear of lifts and to avoid "pinch" points. 19. The operator should know cable and hook inspection procedures. 20. The operator should know procedures for testing hoist, trolley, and bridge brakes. 21. The operator should know and follow the local Lock Out and Tag Out procedures. 1-6. Operating Area Aisles between equipment, stock, etc., should be free of obstructions so the crane operator can move freely. These aisles should be a minimum of three feet (one meter) wide, or meet local regulations. Crane operators should always position them-selves for the best view of the crane they are controlling. The crane should never be operated blindly. The operator should stay as close to the crane load as possible. Operators should never position themselves in a “pinch” point. 1-7. Transmitter Unit Transmitter switches should never be mechani-cally blocked ON or OFF for any crane motion. When not in use turn the transmitter OFF. A se-cure storage space should be provided for the transmitter unit and the transmitter unit should always be placed there when not in use. This precaution will prevent unauthorized people from operating the crane. Spare transmitters should be stored in a secure storage space and only removed from the storage space after the current transmitter in use has been turned OFF, taken out of the service area and secured. 1-8. Operating The Crane 1-8.1. Pre-operation Test At the start of each work shift, or when a new operator takes control of the crane, operators shall do, as a minimum, the following steps before making lifts with any crane or hoist: Test the upper-limit switch. Slowly raise the unloaded hook block until the limit switch trips. When checking limit switches the hoist should be centered over an area free of personnel and equipment. Visually inspect the hook, load lines, trolley, and bridge as much as possible from the operator’s station. In most instances this will be the floor of the building. The bridge and trolley brakes should be tested. On transmitter units equipped with two or more speeds use the “lowest” speed when testing braking devices. When lifting maximum loads the crane operator should test the hoist brakes by raising the load a few inches from the floor. If the brakes do not hold, the load should immediately be lowered to the floor. If provided, test the lower-limit switch. Test all warning devices. Test all direction and speed controls for both bridge and trolley travel. Test all bridge and trolley limit switches, where provided, if operation will bring the equipment in close proximity to the limit switches. Test the transmitter emergency stop. Test the hoist brake to verify there is no drift without a load. If any crane or hoist fails any of the above tests notify the supervisor and lock out and tag out for repair. 1-8.2. General Rules For Operation Consult the crane manufacturer and local and governmental regulations for complete rules of operation. In general the following rules apply to remotely controlled cranes: The limit switches should never be used as a regular stopping device. They are intended to be protective devices. Do not make lifts in excess of the equipment rated capacity. The bridge and trolley should be centered di-rectly over the load when the load is raised. This will prevent swinging when making lifts. A crane designed for this purpose and only with supervisor permission should make side pulls.

Telemotive MLTX Transmitter Instruction Manual—03/1/2006 6 When a lift is being made, the crane operator should not be positioned in the line of travel. The crane or hoist should be operated from a position either to the side or opposite from the direction of travel. When raising or lowering a load, proceed slowly and make certain the load is under control. Tag lines should be used for handling unusual lengths or bulky loads. Remove slack from chains or slings gradually. Make certain all personnel are clear before making a lift. The crane operator should keep all body parts away from the lift and should never be posi-tioned under the lift. Do not make a lift or move a load if anyone is in a location where they could be struck by the crane or the load. If the crane operator is being assisted, the crane should not be moved until the assistant signals they are clear of the crane and its load. When a load is hanging from the crane hook and the crane is being moved, the crane operator should sound all warning devices frequently. Loads should not be carried over workers heads. If a worker is in the path of crane travel, the crane operator should stop the crane and clear the area before proceeding. User/operator should never bump into runway stops or other cranes. When moving the crane, the crane operator should be sure that the hook block and attach-ments or cables will not catch on nearby equipment. Slings, chains, or cables should never be dragged along the floor. Unless required for operator safety, gloves should not be worn when operating the trans-mitter unit. All loose materials or parts should be removed from the load before starting the lift. The crane operator should always hoist lifts high enough to clear all equipment and workers. The crane operator should never permit anyone to ride on the load or hook except when author-ized by the supervisor. When another crane on the same runway is sta-tionary with a load hanging, the crane operator should maintain a safe distance between the sta-tionary crane and the one under their control. Never leave suspended loads unattended. In an emergency, if the crane is inoperative and a load suspended, notify the supervisor immediately, barricade and post signs on the floor beneath crane and load. If power to the crane is removed, the crane op-erator should turn the transmitter unit OFF and keep it OFF until power is restored. If the crane fails to respond properly, the crane operator should stop operation, turn the trans-mitter unit OFF and immediately report the con-dition to their supervisor. Outdoor cranes, which are subject to movement by wind, should be securely anchored when left unattended. If the crane is equipped with bridge brakes, the parking brake should be set immedi-ately. 1-9. Boarding The Crane The crane should not be boarded without permis-sion of the supervisor. The crane operator should turn off the transmitter and take it with them when boarding the crane. If more than one person is boarding the crane, one person should be made responsible for en-suring all personnel are off the crane before the system is returned to operation. 1-10. Crane Maintenance And Repair Qualified personnel must maintain a regularly scheduled crane inspection (i.e., such as monthly). During this crane inspection the functionality and safety of the crane remote control must also be tested. The inspection shall include, but not be limited to items listed in Section 1-12. Condition of The Radio Controlled Crane. Consult the crane manufacturer and local and governmental regulations for recommended inspection intervals and proper inspection procedures. Problems noted during this inspection must be repaired before using the crane or the remote control. Minor repairs include routine maintenance, such as greasing, cleaning and control troubleshooting. All other repairs should be con-sidered major. If the repair crew consists of

Telemotive MLTX Transmitter Instruction Manual—03/1/2006 7 several people, one person should be designated as the repair crew leader. (see responsibilities below). If the repair crew consists of only one person, that person has the following responsibilities: For minor repairs, warning signs should be placed on the floor beneath the crane or sus-pended from the crane. For major repairs, the floor area below the crane should be roped off. When major repairs are to take place, all persons operating other cranes on the same or adjacent runways, must be notified prior to starting repairs. Notification should include the nature of the repair, safeguards provided, and movement limitations while repairs are in progress. When practical, radio controlled cranes which cannot be moved during repairs, must be pro-tected against being bumped into by other cranes on the runway. Cranes under repair should have bumpers installed on the exposed side or sides of the crane. They should be placed as far away as possible. Indicate the location of the bumpers by placing red lights clearly visible to other crane operators traveling on the same runway. When it is not possible to use bumpers, place red lights in a location that is clearly visible to other crane operators traveling on the same runway. This will indicate that there is a restricted travel zone. All crane operators on the same runway must be informed of the repair effort and thoroughly instructed to what their operations are limited to and informed they will be notified when repairs are completed. If any hazard involving the repairmen exists when there is a runway adjacent to the crane un-der repair, the adjacent runway should be blocked off as described above. When it is nec-essary to continue crane operation on the adja-cent runways, warning lights must be installed and visible to the operators of cranes on those runways. All cranes should come to a complete stop prior to entering the restricted area and should proceed through this area only after re-ceiving permission from a signal person desig-nated for this purpose. Access of persons to and from the crane being repaired should be under control of the repair crew leader. When boarding the crane, the transmitter should be turned OFF and the transmitter should remain with the repair crew leader. The leader should board the crane first, open and lock out the main switch, and then signal the other members of the crew it is safe to board the crane. If work on the crane is to be done in areas not protected by standard handrails, the repair crew should wear approved safety belts. All tools and equipment should be moved onto the crane by the use of hand lines. The tools and equipment should be adequately secured to the hand lines. If it is necessary to have the crane control cir-cuits energized, all power circuits for crane movement must be opened prior to energizing the control circuits. During repairs and before moving the crane all personnel and tools should be moved to a safe spot. Headroom is at a minimum in some crane cabs and on some crane walkways. Exercise caution when boarding or working on cranes. Wear hard hats whenever possible. When repairs are finished, all personnel, tools and repair equipment should be removed before energizing the crane circuits. 1-11. Using The Crane As A Work Platform When the crane is to be used as a stationary work platform, follow all rules provided in Section 1-10. Crane Maintenance and Repair. When it is necessary for the crane to be moved from time to time, the crane operator should board the crane with the transmitter unit. The crane operator should ensure all personnel working on the crane are in a secure position before moving the crane to the next workstation. It should also be the crane operator’s responsibility to ensure the main switch is open and locked down before work is resumed.

Telemotive MLTX Transmitter Instruction Manual—03/1/2006 8 WARNING THE CRANE OPERATOR SHOULD NOT AT-TEMPT TO REPAIR ANY OF THE ITEMS STATED BELOW.

Telemotive MLTX Transmitter Instruction Manual—03/1/2006 10 CAUTION Before operating the transmitter, familiarize yourself with all safety information in this manual and any other local, state, or federal rules or regulations already in existence. 2-1. Power “ON-OFF” Switch (Turns transmitter and receiver ON and OFF) With the key switch (optional) engaged, pressing the ON/OFF push-button switch (Part 15) starts the transmitter, pushing it again starts the receiver. Or toggling the ON/OFF toggle switch (Part 90) turns the transmitter and the receiver ON. If the transmitter is ON the BATT MONITOR light is ON or flashing. Pushing the ON/OFF button again (Part 15), or resetting the toggle switch to OFF (Part 90), will turn the transmitter and receiver OFF. 2-2. E-STOP (For Emergency Stopping only) When depressed, the MCR relay is opened, the receiver shuts down, and power to the equipment is immediately stopped. Under normal operating conditions, the E-STOP must be raised. The transmitter must be turned OFF and ON again to restore normal operation. Use the E-STOP for emergency stopping only, not for normal system shut down. The E-STOP will not function with the optional key switch turned OFF. 2-3. Motion Push Buttons, Levers To activate motor functions, press and hold the push-button or lever that corresponds to the desired motion. The extent to which the push-button or lever is pushed, dictates the speed of the motor function. 2-4. Transmitter LED Indicator The transmitter LED (red) indicates the transmitter is on, or transmitting, or has a low battery voltage. A slow flash rate indicates the unit is ON. A rapid flash rate indicates the unit is transmitting (when a function or control is activated). If the battery goes below a safe level, the LED will not light. Replace battery soon. 2-5. Time-Out-Timer Unless this function is disabled, the transmitter will turn itself OFF if not used for 15 minutes. 2-6. Key Switch. (For Part 15 Models not using active E-STOP, disables power to transmitter circuitry only) For models so equipped, turning the key OFF and removing it will disable the transmitter. If the key switch is turned OFF with the transmitter and receiver on, the key switch must be turned ON again to use the ON/OFF push button or E-STOP. Turning the key switch to ON enables power to the transmitter unit, but does not activate the transmitter controls or turn ON the receiver. The ON/OFF push button must be pushed to turn the transmitter and receiver ON or OFF. Under normal procedures it is recommended that the unit be turned OFF with the ON/OFF push button before turning OFF the key switch.
