SIRENS
In addition to the tilt alarm siren (described in
“SAFETY DEVICES”), the TB 60 emits other
alarm sounds under certain conditions.
There are two mini-sirens on a TB 60.
One is located on the platform-control box.
The other is located on the turntable wiring box.
They will both, simultaneously, emit a single
continuous tone if any of the following conditions
occur:
•
the engine temperature gets dangerously
high,
•
there is no alternator current,
•
the MASTER switch or the ANTI-RESTART
MASTER SWITCH has been turned ON, in
preparation to start the engine, but the engine
has not started to crank.
When you hear a single continuous tone, if the
engine is running, shut the engine off and check
the engine temperature and alternator drive-belt.
Correct the problem before returning the TB 60
to service.
If the engine is off when you hear the single
continuous tone, someone (maybe you) is about
to start a TB 60 near you. Be alert and watch for
machine movement.
AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFFS
If the coolant in a Ford engine exceeds 220°F
(104°C) the engine will automatically stop and
cannot be restarted until it cools. A single
continuous tone will be emitted by both mini-
sirens prior to shut-off.
If the oil in a Deutz engine exceeds 230°F
(110°C) the engine will automatically stop and
cannot be restarted until it cools. A single
continuous tone will be emitted by both mini-
sirens prior to shut-off.
If a Deutz engine starts and runs for 30 seconds
without producing any alternator current, the
engine will automatically stop. This feature
protects the engine temperature in the event the
fan/alternator drive-belt breaks. A single
continuous tone will be emitted by both mini-
sirens prior to shut-off.
