26 P EXCAVATOR

Overview

Auxiliary 1 allows operators to control primary attachments such as buckets, thumbs, or other attachments to get the most out of your machine. Controlled on the joystick, operators can control attachments with their fingers, freeing up their feet for other functions and reducing fatigue during long work sessions. Auxiliary 2 is provided for customers looking to expand independent hydraulic controls beyond the basic functions of auxiliary 1. This feature complements Auxiliary 1 by allowing simultaneous operation of multiple attachments, making complex tasks more manageable.

Benefits

• Ergonomic Control Layout:
  • Aux 1 on Right Joystick & Aux 2 on Left Joystick (if equipped): This new configuration places critical auxiliary controls within easy reach, allowing operators to manipulate attachments with precision and minimal effort. This design reduces fatigue and enhances productivity during long working hours.
• Standard Auxiliary Flow Adjustment:
  • Auxiliary flow can be adjusted in the sealed switch module, allowing for on-the-fly modifications to hydraulic flow based on attachment needs and operator preference.
• Swing boom control on joystick clears up room on the floor for the operator. The speed can also be adjusted in the sealed switch module.

Adjustable Flow Rate for AUX 1 and AUX 2

Easily customize the hydraulic flow rate for AUX 1 or AUX 2 to match your attachment needs. Simply press the AUX button (7) to select the desired auxiliary line. The selected AUX line will be displayed on your monitor for confirmation.

To switch between AUX 1 and AUX 2, press the AUX button (7) again.

Once your preferred AUX line is selected, adjust the flow rate using the up arrow (8) to increase flow or the down arrow (0) to decrease it, giving you precise control for optimal performance.

Joystick AUX Functions

AUX 1 is standard on all 26 P-tier machines and is located on the right-hand joystick roller, providing consistent control for primary hydraulic attachments.

AUX 2 is an optional feature, mapped to the left-hand joystick roller when equipped.

Boom Swing is always controlled via the left-hand joystick.

When AUX 2 is installed, operators can toggle between AUX 2 and Boom Swing using a dedicated button on the left joystick, allowing seamless switching between attachment control and boom swing functionality.
