THE PURPOSE OF THIS MANUAL IS TO PROVIDE THE CUSTOMER WITH THE OPERATING
PROCEDURES ESSENTIAL FOR THE PROMOTION OF PROPER MACHINE OPERATION FOR
ITS INTENDED USE. THE IMPORTANCE OF PROPER USAGE CANNOT BE OVERSTRESSED.
ALL INFORMATION IN THIS MANUAL SHOULD BE READ AND UNDERSTOOD BEFORE ANY
ATTEMPT IS MADE TO OPERATE THE MACHINE.
SINCE THE MANUFACTURER HAS NO DIRECT CONTROL OVER MACHINE APPLICATION
AND OPERATION, CONFORMANCE WITH GOOD SAFETY PRACTICE IN THIS AREA IS THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE USER AND HIS OPERATING PERSONNEL.
ALL PROCEDURES ARE BASED ON THE USE OF THE SYSTEM UNDER PROPER OPERATING
CONDITIONS, WITH NO DEVIATIONS FROM THE ORIGINAL DESIGN. ALTERATION AND
OR MODIFICATION OF THE EQUIPMENT IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN WITHOUT PRIOR
WRITTEN APPROVAL FROM ELEC-MECH (PTY) LTD.
THE SAFE-AID TS7000 (RATED CAPACITY INDICATOR (RCI)/LOAD MOMENT INDICATOR
(LMI)) IS ONLY TO BE REGARDED AS AN AID TO THE OPERATOR. WHEN THE
PARAMETERS ARE SET CORRECTLY, THE INDICATOR WILL WARN THE MACHINE
OPERATOR OF AN APPROACHING OVERLOAD CONDITION OR A CONDITION THAT COULD
CAUSE DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT, PROPERTY, AND/OR INJURY TO THE OPERATOR OR
THE SITE WORKERS IN THE VICINITY OF THE MACHINE AND ITS LOAD.
THIS SYSTEM UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MUST BE USED AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR THE
GOOD JUDGEMENT OF A MACHINE OPERATOR WHEN CARRYING OUT APPROVED
MACHINE-OPERATING PROCEDURES, THEREFORE THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE SAFE
OPERATION OF THE MACHINE LIES WITH THE MACHINE OPERATOR. THE SYSTEM WILL
NOT NECESSARILY PREVENT DAMAGE DUE TO OVERLOADING AND RELATED CAUSES,
IF NOT SET PROPERLY.
BEFORE OPERATING A MACHINE EQUIPPED WITH A SAFE-AID TS7000 RCI, THE
OPERATOR MUST READ THE INFORMATION IN THIS MANUAL CAREFULLY. CORRECT
FUCTIONING OF THE SYSTEM DEPENDS UPON ROUTINE DAILY INSPECTION AND ANY
SUSPECTED FAULTS OR APPARENT DAMAGE SHOULD BE IMMEDIATELY REPORTED TO
THE RESPONSIBLE PERSON BEFORE USING THE MACHINE.

SYSTEM USE
The TS7000 unit is designed with ease of operation in mind. The machine setup is automatic
or selected and confirmed by the operator before the system goes into its normal
operating/monitoring screen, requiring no further input from the operator unless the machine
configuration is changed, and a manual setup is required. Before this is done the machine
will remain in safe mode, i.e. the dump circuit (cut-off) will be operational (if the machine has
a dump system fitted). All inputs to the system are done by the operator via the touch screen
including the buzzer override function and momentary bypass. The touch screen is sensitive
to touch therefore it is not necessary to push hard on the screen (if touch screen does not
work or selects incorrectly see Touch Screen Calibration).

SYSTEM STARTUP – FIGURE 2 & 3
The TS7000 display (LMI) will automatically come on when you switch the machine on, and
the buzzer will sound once. The system will run a CRC (cyclic redundancy check) to make
sure that all raw data is correct.
Once the system has completed the CRC the buzzer will sound again and a set of internal
diagnostics (watchdogs) will be utilised to verify that all inputs and outputs are working
correctly.
Figure 2 Figure 3

TS7000 MATERIAL HANDLER OPERATORS MANUAL - VERSION I Page 6
MACHINE CONFIGURATION SELECTION
The system will now run through a series of selections to establish the current machine
configuration. These selections are setup by the machine manufacturer and correspond to
the relevant load chart and are not necessarily displayed in the same order as laid out in this
manual. These checks can be automatic or user selectable if automatic no input is required
by the operator as the system users machine inputs and logic to determine the correct
configuration.
If operator selectable use the back button to start the complete selection from
the beginning at any time.
OPERATING SCREENS – FIGURE 4 & 5
All the machine and system information can be viewed from here including all the parameters
selected from power up. On manual setup if a different configuration is required, press the
machine graphic on the screen, the system will go back to the beginning as on system start
up. Repeat the selection steps.
Figure 4 Figure 5
In operating mode, you can see all the current parameters of the machine.

Under Carriage: This is the current under carriage and can be represented by the following:
 outrigger picture with the outrigger length
 or picture of a tyre with the crane travel speed or description
 Tracks with extended or retracted measurement
Radius: This is the measurement from the centre
line of rotation to the end of the stick.
Radius: This is measurement from the ground to the end of the stick.
Lifted Load: This is the load on the hook at the present time, if the green
light and the load are flashing it is a tare load (the tare has been pressed).
Rated Capacity: This is the load allowed to be picked up with the selected
configuration at the current radius and height as specified by the manufacturer.
Boom Angle: This displays the boom angle.
Stick Angle: This displays the stick angle.
Utilisation: Percentage utilisation is the percentage of rated load used by
the current lifted load.
Date & Time: This is the current date and time.

TS7000 MATERIAL HANDLER OPERATORS MANUAL - VERSION I Page 8
Utilisation Bar: The percentage utilisation is also displayed graphically by a bar graph,
going from green (0% - 89%), then amber (90% - 99%) and finally red (100% and above)
increasing incrementally with the percentage utilisation.
Area Selection: This is not user selectable and shows the current area the crane is working
in:
360 Degrees Over Side & Rear Direct over front
Direct Over Rear Direct Over Front & Rear Over Side
Over Front and Side Over Front Outrigger to Outrigger Over Rear Outrigger to
Outrigger
Level/Tilt: The cross through the area selection represents the X & Y axis
while the two lines in the axis are the positioning of the crane (see Tilt or Level setup).
Area Selection Potentiometer: The black dot in the perimeter circle
represents the position of the boom relative to the carrier.

ERROR MESSAGES - FIGURE 6 AND TABLE 1
The TS7000 will sound a buzzer and the green block will be replaced by an orange or red
block at the top of the screen if any error occurs on the system. These errors are displayed
at the bottom of the screen as either an error code only or the error description with the error
code e.g. Anti-2-Block E002 where program selection is normally displayed. If more than one
error occurs the errors will scroll on the bottom until rectified.
Figure 6
For all the errors, we have given an indication of the problem and the common
solution to the problem. These can be done by the operator or an individual who
has some basic crane knowledge. If the given solution does not work, please
contact the original installer or someone from our service network where we can
try and help telephonically or send a technician to repair the system.
