Installation and Operation of Remote Control System

Installation Instructions
Handheld series remote control can be used in conjunction with various specifications and models of cranes or equipment.

Remark for Receiver Installation
Please pay attention to safety when climbing the crane. Before installation, please be sure to turn off the main power supply of the crane, and live installation is strictly prohibited. When there is a frequency converter near the receiver, the distance between the receiver and the frequency converter must be greater than 2 meters, or the receiver should be installed in a shielded metal box, and the distance from the antenna should be as far away as possible from the frequency converter. The receiver antenna should be installed as high and open as possible to avoid affecting the reception signal.

Installation of Transmitter
Battery installation: Please check the battery level before installation to avoid insufficient voltage that may cause the machine to fail to start.

Technical Support Maintenance and Fault Description

Please be noted that each transmitter and receiver is matched one to one and the frequency and address code are preset correspondingly. If the customer purchases two transmitters to control one receiver at the same time, there may be a situation where two operators control one device at the same time, resulting in equipment failure or unpredictable conditions. The consequences will be borne by the customer.

Maintenance

  1. The high-frequency module components in the Dechi remote control system enjoy one year of free maintenance during standard operating hours (non-human damage).
  2. Provide one-year and lifetime warranty services for other components.
