Operators guide<br />
CAUTION! Do not reduce pedestal pressure below 3.5 bar (50 psi). This ensures<br />
that the elevating mechanism remains in tension, preventing damage to<br />
the pedestal.<br />
4. Push down on the steering ring [19] against residual pressure <strong>and</strong> release the<br />
column lock [6]. Allow the column to extend under h<strong>and</strong> restraint.<br />
5. Exercise the moving column [32] over its full travel at least twice, then position the<br />
column in the mid-height position.<br />
• If the column tends to fall, remove a trim weight from the weight tray [5] or<br />
increase the pressure.<br />
• If the column tends to rise, reduce the pressure in steps of 0.15–0.2 bar (2–3<br />
psi) using the Schrader valve cap [3].<br />
NOTE: The Schrader valve cap forms a primary pressure seal. Always replace the cap<br />
<strong>and</strong> screw it down finger-tight.<br />
6. A correctly pressurised pedestal will balance its payload—allowing movement over<br />
the full on-shot stroke of the moving column with minimum effort—<strong>and</strong> will maintain<br />
its position when the steering ring is released.<br />
For manual operation fine-tuning the balance <strong>and</strong> temperature correction may be achieved by<br />
adding or removing trim weights.<br />
Configuration<br />
Setting the pedestal number<br />
Each pedestal in a system is uniquely identified so that when a pedestal channel is selected at<br />
the control panel, communication is established with the correct channel. This identification is<br />
factory set, but may be reassigned later if required. Contact <strong>Vinten</strong> <strong>Radamec</strong> or your local <strong>Vinten</strong><br />
<strong>Radamec</strong> distributor for details on resetting the pedestal number.<br />
Operation<br />
Parking brake<br />
The pedestal base is provided with a parking brake [18] on one wheel. The brake is not designed<br />
to slow the pedestal while in motion.<br />
CAUTION! Do not apply the brake while the pedestal is in motion. The pedestal<br />
may become unstable <strong>and</strong> the brake may be damaged.<br />
Rotate the slider [18] anti-clockwise to engage the brake or clockwise to release it.<br />
