INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS 4 - AUXILIARY HYDRAULIC KIT CONTROL PEDAL (IF INSTALLED) DANGER Always engage the safety device (2) when the use of the control is not required, during travel and when parking the machine. When connecting hydraulically-controlled equipment to the auxiliary kit, make sure that the control ped- al is always in position «A» (CLOSED CIRCUIT). Before moving the pedal to the coupling position «B» (OPEN CIRCUIT), stop the machine, lower the equipment to the ground and always lock the equipment and travel control by lifting the safety bars to the lock position.
Before carrying out any manoeuvre with this pedal, the operator must be seated in the work position with fastened safety belt. 89 The pedal (1) controls the opening or closing of the oil flow to the optional equipment and has two fixed positions. CAUTION • To reach the pedal (1), manually lift the safety guard (2). 1 - Rest position «A» (HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT CLOSED). This position excludes any possibility to use the optional equipment and corresponds to the neutral position of the pedal. 2 - Coupling position «B» (HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT OPEN).
This position allows a continuous oil flow to be supplied to the optional equipment (excavator, demolition hammer, as- phalt cutter, etc.) and is obtained by pressing the left part of the pedal (1) with the foot until the distributor spool is en- gaged. When it is in this position, the pedal cannot return automati- cally to the neutral position: it is necessary to press forward the safety lever (3) positioned beside the pedal.
