GENERAL INTRODUCTION EXPLANATION OF CX SERIES Pilot Controls The attachment controls are pilot operated by hand actuated controllers on all models. The pilot hand controls are mounted to tilting armrests that can be positioned to provide for maximum operator comfort. The standard control pattern is the SAE pattern. The controls can be changed to other configurations by changing the pilot hose connections at the pilot manifold, located behind the cab (see Section 3 of this manual for instructions). There is a pattern change kit available as an option. This allows pattern changes without moving hoses.
When the left arm is tilted up or the gate is up, all pilot operated control functions are inactive. On all models, the travel system is actuated by foot pedals that also have hand control levers attached. The travel controls are pilot pressure operated on all models. The CX240 has the single pedal feature, by actuating a single control pedal, both travel systems will travel at the same speed and direction. This feature gives the operator straight-line travel in either forward or reverse. 1 - 5 CX EXCAVATORS Pilot Controls MODEL CX130 CX160 CX210 CX240 Pilot operated hand and foot controls yes yes yes yes Single pedal travel no no no yes
