User Guide vii
Do not perform the procedures in this manual unless you are experienced in the
handling of electronic equipment.
Contact the manufacturer if there is anything you are not sure about or if you have
any questions regarding the product and its handling or maintenance.
The term "manufacturer" refers to Parker Hannifin Corporation.
Safety symbols
The following symbols are used in this document to indicate potentially
hazardous situations:
Danger! Risk of death or injury.
Warning! Risk of damage to equipment or degradation of signal
When you see these symbols, follow the instructions carefully and proceed with
caution.
General safety regulations
Work on the hydraulics control electronics may only be carried out by trained
personnel who are well-acquainted with the control system, the machine, and its
safety regulations.
Follow the manufacturer's regulations when mounting, modifying,
repairing, and maintaining equipment. The manufacturer assumes no
responsibility for any accidents caused by incorrectly mounted or
incorrectly maintained equipment. The manufacturer assumes no
responsibility for the system being incorrectly applied, or the system
being programmed in a manner that jeopardizes safety.
Safety

viii VMM3120
Safety
Do not use the product if electronic modules, cabling, or connectors are
damaged or if the control system shows error functions.
Electronic control systems in an inappropriate installation and in
combination with strong electromagnetic interference fields can, in
extreme cases, cause an unintentional change of speed of the output
function.
Welding after installation
Complete as much as possible of the welding work on the chassis before the
installation of the system. If welding has to be done afterwards, proceed as
follows:
Do not place the welding unit cables near the electrical wires of the
control system.
1. Disconnect the electrical connections between the system and external
equipment.
2. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
3. Disconnect the positive cable from the battery.
4. Connect the welder's ground wire as close as possible to the place of the
welding.
Construction regulations
The vehicle must be equipped with an emergency stop which disconnects the
supply voltage to the control system's electrical units. The emergency stop must
be easily accessible to the operator. If possible, the machine must be built so that
the supply voltage to the control system's electrical units is disconnected when the
operator leaves the operator’s station.
Safety during installation
Incorrectly positioned or mounted cabling can be influenced by radio
signals, which can interfere with the functions of the system.

User Guide ix
Safety
Safety during start-up
Danger! Risk of death or injury. Do not start the machine's engine
before the control system is mounted and its electrical functions have
been verified.
Do not start the machine if anyone is near the machine.
Safety during maintenance and fault diagnosis
Before performing any work on the hydraulics control electronics, ensure that
The machine cannot start moving.
Functions are positioned safely.
The machine is turned off.
The hydraulic system is relieved from any pressure.
Supply voltage to the control electronics is disconnected.
