XAC series pendant control	XAC is Schneider model compatible; AR1-F is a direct replacement with same interface but lower cost
AR1-Y series pendant control	AR1-Y has different button layout and is not rainproof; AR1-F is designed for outdoor use with sealed enclosure

Use Guide

Getting It Onto The Machine

Confirm the crane control panel voltage and current rating before installation
Ensure the pendant cable length matches the reach required from the operator's station
Install the pendant with the cable gland tightened to prevent strain on internal wires
Test the emergency stop button before first use to verify immediate shutdown
Record the model number and button layout for future replacement or spare ordering
