9.4 Additional maintenance operations in environments with corrosive
agents
If the Radio Remote Control is used in environments where corrosive agents are present (by
way of example: sea water, salt fog, salt...), apply grease to the electrical connections to protect
them.
Only use electrically non-conductive, polyalphaolefin and silicate-based
grease for electrical contacts.
Do not use polyether-, polyoile󰄋er- and polyphenyl ether-based grease.
One possible grease to be used is Electric Grease CN 4070 (Macon Research).
Check and replace grease as frequently as shown in the following table:
Type of connection Grease check frequency Re-greasing frequency
Connector for external antenna every 4-6 months If dirt and impurities are found
Receiving Unit's plug every 4-6 months If dirt and impurities are found
Connectors for cable control of
Transmitting Unit and of
Receiving Unit
1 month
If dirt and impurities are found,
and once a year anyway
Contacts of Transmitting Unit,
battery charger and battery
weekly
If dirt and impurities are found,
and once every three months
anyway
It is recommended to disconnect the cable control cable and to 󰘵ore it in a protected
place when it is not in use.
When carrying out this kind of maintenance operations, follow these recommendations:
- Make sure that the surface of electrical connections is covered with a layer of grease and add
it if necessary.
- Contact the support service of the Machine Manufacturer if evident oxidation is detected.
9.5 Preventive replacement of the Radio Remote Control's
electromechanical components
9.5.1 Actuators (joy󰄋icks, pushbuttons and switches)
As provided by the Manufacturer of each actuator in the corresponding technical specification,
each actuator of the Transmitting Unit can be used for a defined “maximum number of operations”,
as shown in the table below. The “maximum number of operations” mu󰘵 not be considered as
a warranty period.
