Description/Abstract:
THE K-PILE 3X TIE-IN SWITCH IS MOUNTED ON THE VSR CYLINDERS TO PREVENT THE 3X BALLS FROM BEING DROPPED IF THE VSR DROPS. THIS SWITCH IS EXPECTED TO BE A SOURCE OF INTERMITTENT TROUBLE BY CAUSING THE SPURIOUS TRIPPING OF THE 3X BALLS. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT A SWITCH OF NEW DESIGN BE INSTALLED AFTER SATISFACTORY TESTING.
