COUNTERWEIGHT & MOUNTING GP 3764558 - Caterpillar

Identify the object and the location of the object before you move the machine. Failure to identify the object and the location of the object prior to moving the machine can result in product damage, personal injury, or death.
Object Detection Sensor information will not be used in order to determine the exact position of the object. Only the general area of the object relative to the machine will be displayed. The operator must use the camera for the designated machine quadrant in order to determine if the object is in the path of the machine and if evasive action is required.
Any critical zone indication will trigger an audible alarm if either of the following conditions are true:
The operator places the machine in gear and attempts to move in the direction of a detected object. For front and rear critical zones only.
The operator places the machine in gear and attempts to move in any direction. For left and right side critical zones only.Effects on System Operation
The operation of the system can be affected by any of the following factors.
Personal injury or death could result without observing the following information.Environmental conditions, installation, and topographical factors can effect the proper operation of the Cat Integrated Object Detection System. The following information must be taken into consideration.
Environmental - Weather conditions such as rain, snow, and sleet can create road conditions that may cause mud to build up on the face of the object detection sensor. The moisture in the mud can reduce the effectiveness of the coverage of the object detection sensors. The mud absorbs the RF energy that is emitted by the object detection sensors. If an accumulation of mud is observed on the object detection sensors, then clean the surface of the sensor. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Object Detection Sensor - Clean/Inspect" section of this manual for addition information on how to clean the sensors.Note: The object detection sensors have blockage detection diagnostics. These diagnostics will display a message to the operator via the display when mud or other substances block the object detection sensors. The event will remain active until the sensor has been cleaned or the blockage is removed.Installation - Incorrect sensor bracket installation and or alignment may also cause the object detection sensors to give nuisance warnings to the operator. The system may sense false objects because the object detection sensors are not set to the correct angle.Note: The brackets may become misaligned over time because of shock and vibration the machine is subjected to during normal operations. The condition of the object detection sensor brackets should be inspected daily.Topographical - The system may sense objects even though no objects are present. These detections may occur if the grade of a haul road, a loading area, or a ready line are significant enough to reflect RF energy in the same way as a vehicle or berm would. One or more false targets are possible when a V-ditch is utilized when parking the machine. The
