Ground Level Service Center (GLSC)

------ WARNING! ------

Do not attempt to access the ground level service center when the machine is in motion, the BLUE Remote Active indicator is flashing, or the BLUE Remote Active indicator is on solid. Serious injury or death may occur. Ask the remote control operator to place the implements on the ground, apply the implement lockout, and apply the parking brake before accessing the ground level service center.

(50) Permanent auxiliary start receptacle
(51) Service meter
(52) Manual/remote mode switch
(53) Battery disconnect switch
(54) Emergency engine shutdown switch
(55) Access lights switch

The Ground Level Service Center (GLSC) contains a Manual/Remote Mode switch (52) and Emergency Engine Shutdown switch (54). When the Manual/Remote Mode switch (52) is in the remote position, the only machine cab controls that will function are the service brakes, the lights, and the horn. All other cab controls will not function. When the Manual/Remote Mode switch (52) is in the manual position, the machine cab control functions are restored for normal operation.

The GLSC is on the left side of the machine. The GLSC is mounted in the left side fender.

Note: The Manual/Remote Mode switch (54) provides a Lockout Tab which provides a way to lock out and tag out the remote control mode. The tab can be used as lock out for service or while the machine is being used in manual mode.

(43) Manual override switch

The Manual Override switch (43) is used to place the machine into manual mode and overrides the remote control system. The Manual Override switch is a momentary type switch and the default position is the Remote position. To place the machine back into remote control mode once the manual override mode is entered, the user must cycle the Manual/Remote Mode switch (38) on the ground level service center.

Note: When the machine is placed in remote override (manual) mode, the remote control ECM remains powered. The Manual Override switch is identified with a red rectangle surrounding the switch. The red identification makes the switch more easily seen when needed.
