APPENDIX A TRANSMITTER SAFETY NOTE
Function of the Switch Lever Guard
The primary function of the transmitter switch guard (refer to photo below) is to prevent
accidental activation of the motor levers. A secondary function is to facilitate operator
ergonomics. The guard should not be used as a "handle" while performing a remote control
operation with the transmitter. Consider the following scenario: the operator has completed a
task and is walking away from the crane grasping the transmitter by the switch guard. If the unit
is still ON and a hand accidentally moves one of the levers, the result could be an unintentional
crane motion.
To prevent this type of scenario, Control Chief provides a fitted harness with each transmitter for
the operator to use during operations. The harness enables the operator to carry the unit
around while performing their tasks, thereby preventing an accidental switch lever actuation due
to handling.
Recommended Practices
1. Always wear a harness when performing remote control tasks with the transmitter. These
components are designed to work together to provide the safest operational performance for
the operator and the task he / she must perform.
2. When the operator has completed a shift or is about to take a break - the transmitter power
switch must be turned off and the key removed. A transmitter should not be left unattended
without being secured to prevent unauthorized operation.
