Is there hydraulic lockout on a caterpillar telehandler?

Hydraulic lockout is something we hear from telehandler operators all the time, so we know how it’s regarded as a huge nuisance on most farms. It’s why Caterpillar sought to provide an in-built solution to this problem. All Cat ® Telehandlers feature an intelligent LSI system, featuring “passive” and “active” modes.

When does a cat telehandler go into passive mode?

When the machine is in-gear with the park brake disengaged, Cat Telehandlers enter passive mode. This means the LSI sensor will alert the operator to potential instability, but won’t lock out the hydraulics.

How did my cat th360b telehandler Ser stop working?

The past couple of times it happenned it started working all of a sudden. Then ran right far a few days. This last time we started it raised the boom drove to the work area neede and then teh joystick and power steering stopped working.

Why do caterpillar telehandlers have active and passive modes?

It’s why Caterpillar sought to provide an in-built solution to this problem. All Cat ® Telehandlers feature an intelligent LSI system, featuring “passive” and “active” modes. These help operators avoid unwanted lockout, keeping their machines moving. When the machine is in-gear with the park brake disengaged, Cat Telehandlers enter passive mode.

How is the stability of a telehandler measured?

As the axle straightens, the sensors detect a change in pressure and send a signal to the LSI. Telehandler stability is measured within a “stability triangle,” which aims to keep the machine’s centre of gravity (CG) within it.

When does a Caterpillar Tractor go into active mode?

Operators can drive into piles with a grain bucket or muck fork and easily tear out material, or drive over rough terrain, without the inconvenience of a hydraulic and boom lockout. “Active” mode comes into play when the machine is in neutral, or the handbrake is engaged, for duties such as bale stacking.
