2.12 25RTS Tilt Alarm Switch
NOTE: The machine is equipped with a tilt alarm switch factory set to activate at 5° and will sound an alarm and illuminate a warning light on the platform control console. Consult factory for tilt switch adjustment. The only field adjustment necessary is leveling the switch on the spring loaded studs. There are two methods of adjustment, a manual adjustment and an adjustment using a voltmeter.
1. Park the machine on a flat, level surface and ensure machine is level.
NOTE: Ensure switch mounting bracket is level and securely attached.
2. Level the base of the indicator by tightening the three flange nuts. Tighten each nut through approximately one half of it’s spring’s travel. DO NOT ADJUST THE “X” NUT DURING THE REMAINDER OF THE PROCEDURE.
3. With the electrical connections complete, slowly tighten one of the “Y” nuts until the circuit is closed and the light on the Platform Control Console illuminates.
4. Slowly back off the nut, counting the number of turns, until the circuit is again closed and the light again illuminates.
5. Divide the number of turns determined in step (4) in half. Tighten the nut this many turns. The line determined by this nut and the “X” nut is now parallel to the ground.
6. Repeat steps (3) through (5) for the remaining “Y” nut. The switch is now level.
7. Individually push down on one corner at a time; there should be enough travel to cause the switch to trip. If the switch does not trip in all three tests, the flange nuts have been tightened too far. Loosen the “X” nut and repeat steps (3) through (7).
Voltmeter Adjustment
1. Park machine on a flat, level surface and ensure machine is level.
2. If motor is not running, turn ignition switch to ON.
3. Connect black lead of voltmeter to ground and red lead to yellow wire protruding from pot on bottom of sensor.
4. Adjust leveling nuts to obtain the highest possible voltage reading.
5. Check voltage at trip point in all four directions. If voltage reading is not symmetrical, repeat step (4) Figure 2-15. Tilt AlarmSwitch - Manual Adjustment above.
