Comparison

How It Compares With The Alternatives

Wired pendant with larger housing	The XAC-A2713 is more compact and easier to use with one hand, but a larger pendant may offer more buttons and better ergonomics for extended use
F24 series radio remote control	The pendant offers direct wired control with no battery or pairing required; a radio remote adds mobility but requires battery replacement and channel setup
Double speed pendant control	The XAC-A2713 is simpler and cheaper for single speed applications; double speed units allow faster travel and slower approach but require more buttons

Use Guide

Getting It Onto The Machine

Confirm the control voltage and contactor rating on the crane panel before ordering
Use the rotary start button to activate the control; do not press both buttons simultaneously
Ensure the mechanical interlock is functioning properly before operation
Clean the buttons and housing regularly to maintain performance in dusty environments
Record the model and S/N if you need to order a replacement later
