 When operating the miner from behind (at the conveyor boom end of the miner facing the cutter head): The LEFT TRAM FORWARD control will turn the cutter head toward the cable side of the machine and the boom toward the off side of the machine. - When operating the miner from the front (at the cutter head end of the miner facing the boom): The LEFT TRAM FORWARD control will ALSO turn the cutter head toward the cable side of the machine and the boom toward the off side of the machine. - ALWAYS expect the remote control to move the crawlers (CATS) in the same direction regardless of the direction you are facing. - DO NOT become disoriented because your position changes. The operation of the remote control does not change if you are at the rear, facing forward or in the front, backing out.
