Limit Bypass Switch (Non-CE Certified
Cranes)
The Rated Capacity Limiter (RCL) system, when
programmed accurately, will lockout the following crane
functions—boom up/down, telescope extend, and hoist up—
when a lift is attempted at or above the crane's capacity, or
when a two-block condition exists. Locking out these
functions prevents the overload or two-block condition from
worsening.
The Limit Bypass Switch (1) (Figure 3-9) is a two-position,
maintained type key switch. In an emergency situation only,
turn switch clockwise to bypass the following limiter systems
and their craning function lockouts:
RCL system (boom up/down, telescope extend, hoist
up)
Anti-two block system (boom up/down, telescope
extend, hoist up)
Third wrap limiter system (hoist down)
Working range limiter (WRL) system
Carrier avoidance system
-29°C temperature limiter system (optional)
The following indicators illuminate to indicate the limiters are
bypassed:
Bypass 3 Pressed indicator is on
RCL Bypass Active indicator is on
RCL Bypass Status indicator is on
RCL Lockout LED is flashing
Anti-two-block indicator is flashing
Third wrap indicator is flashing
Working range limiter (WRL) indicator is flashing
Carrier avoidance indicator is flashing
-29°C temperature limiter indicator is flashing
All craning functions locked out are bypassed while the key
switch is in the clockwise position.
Overriding the RCL with this switch should only be done in
an emergency.
NOTE: Before powering up crane, ensure Limit Bypass
Switch is in the Normal (not Override) position to
avoid an error code.
