Bi-Energy, Petrol/Diesel / 24V DC
There are various Bi-Energy options available for
the TL39T. The following describes the Petrol/
Diesel / 24V option.
This consists of a combination of both a gasoline
or diesel engine and a 24V DC motor to give a Bi-
energy option.
Specifically a 24V DC motor is mounted on the
column under the left hand side cover. This provides
an alternative power source to the gasoline or
diesel engine.
The DC motor is powered by four “Deep Cy cle
Traction Batteries” mounted 2 each side of the
column and an automatic battery charger that is
also mounted on the column.
❑
DC motor
The DC motor is mounted under the left hand side
cover (see Figure 11.1).
Figure 11.1 - DC Motor
❑ DC motor operation
A Fuel / Electric switch is used to select either the
gasoline/diesel engine or the DC motor.
This switch is mounted on the front of the lower
control box (see Figure 11.2.1).
Figure 11.2.1 - Fuel / Electric Switch
If the gasoline/diesel engine is selected [SWITCH
UP] the DC motor will not function and if the DC
motor is selected [SWITCH DOWN] the gasoline/
diesel engine will not run.
❑ DC motor battery switch
In order to operate the DC motor the 24V DC
battery isolator switch, mounted at the centre rear
of the column, will also need to be switched on (see
Figure 11.3).
Figure 11.3 - DC Motor Battery Isolate Switch
Note - 24V DC Battery Switch
When operating the gasoline/diesel engine the
24V DC battery switch should be turned to the “off”
position.
❑ Setting the manual stabilisers
In order for the stabilisers to function an additional
switch (see Figure 11.4) needs to be operated.
This switch, mounted adjacent to the stabiliser
valve levers, must be held on in the STABILISER
ENABLED Πposition while the individual stabiliser
valves are operated.
When released it will automatically return to the
STABILISER DISABLED Πposition
Figure 11.4 - Stabiliser Enable Switch
Note: - Stabiliser Enable Switch
This switch is ONLY fitted to units that have manual
stabiliser valve levers.
❑
Setting the automatic stabilisers
When the Automatic Stabiliser Option is fitted
there is no need to use the stabiliser enable switch
described above.
For automatic stabilizer operation refer to the
Operation Chapter.
