First of all you need to know the alarm code that is generated by the SAR system. These alarms are
to be read as described in the manual, by recognizing the sequence of flashing LEDs.
At the end of the procedure (page 12) you will find the sequence of alarms that may occur in the
controller with the corresponding description.

In case we encounter an alarm 38,51 or 52 and the load cell is an old model its required to change
the load cell whit a new model. In case we are working on a machine with the new load cell
(38.0056.00A0 Rev B-1.01 side tag EC green dot.) and we have an error 51 or 52 we suggest to
perform a Calibration Test.
For any other alarm please follow the instruction write on the manual.

SAFETY REGULATIONS
All maneuvering must be done by authorized personnel.
Is required to be equipped with all the adequate Protective equipment. gloves, goggles, safety shoes,
work overalls.
Materials needed for cell replacement:
Wrench 8mm hex
Torque wrench
Sandpaper various measures
Scissors
Ties different (from 10 cm to 30 cm)

BEGINNING OF WORKS FOR CELL REPLACEMENT

First we will go to disconnect the connector of


the cell, during this operation we can check if
the plastic seal are installed correctly on the
connector if are ok proceed on freed any cable
ties that may bound the cable on the body of the
machine, if the seal are broken or miss please
provide for replacement.

We can remove the old load cell and start to


clean the surface of the axle with sandpaper and
dust cleaner.

The surface of the axle where it will be set the


sensor must be cleaned as shown in the photo

Pag. 3

At this point we proceed to Replace the load cell


by following this step:
1. Tight the screw completely on the two
thread to be sure that no residual of loctite
are present. When the screw is free remove
it and proceed on the next step.

2. Put loctite on the thread and the surface of


the load cell

3. Install the load cell on the axle and tighten


the screws by hand be sure that the machine
have the tyres on the leveled ground and the
boom fully close and fully down, then
proceed on the tightening with the torque
wrench set on 65 Nm (+5, -0) Nm , the
screws must be tighten alternate to dont
have false force accumulated, at the end put
the plastic cap come with the kit.

The installation is complete now we must wait at list one hour before proceed with the calibration
to let the loctite dry.

CALIBRATION PROCEDURE OF ANTI-TIPPING CONTROL UNIT


We must be sure that the Loctite has dried (wait at least one hour) before proceeding with the
calibration. Remove any tool installed on the machine, find a flat surface and make sure you have
enough operating space in order to extend the arm along its entire length and height. Calibration
deletion is accessed by entering an access code during the second phase of the ignition panel.
NOTE: After entering the key sequence to wait 5 seconds before proceeding with the
otherwise the cancellation of the calibration unit does not perform the test.

VIEW ALARMS ON SAR PANEL

Note: Led L6 on the LED bar signals the alarms, the buzzer is not used to signal alarms.
Description of operation
When the system registers an alarm/anomaly, led L6 will flash on the panel, while leds L1,..,L5 stay
off. Led L6 will emit a sequence of flashes according to a code below on to identify the faulty
channel and the alarm number. The system detects the alarms for each single channel (maximum
total of 10 alarms at the same time) and displays the first of the recorded alarms on the screen. The
alarm appears on the display until the condition is restored.
Note: When a system alarm occurs, all of the outputs switch off (including WDO).
