Think Safety
Most accidents that involve product operation, maintenance, and repair are caused by failure to observe basic
safety rules or precautions. An accident can often be avoided by recognizing potentially hazardous situations
before an accident occurs. A person must be alert to potential hazards. This person should also have the necessary
training, skills, and tools to perform these functions properly.

Remove the filler cap only when the engine is stopped, and the filler cap
is cool enough to touch with your bare hand. Remove the filler cap
slowly in order to relieve pressure.
Personal injury or death can result from escaping fluid under pressure.
Escaping fluid under pressure, even a very small pin-hole size leak, can
penetrate body tissue and cause serious injury and possible death. If
fluid is injected into your skin, it must be treated immediately by a
doctor familiar with this type of injury.
NOTICE
Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained during
performance of inspection, maintenance, testing, adjusting, and repair
of the product. Be prepared to collect the fluid with suitable containers
before opening any compartment or disassembling any component
containing fluids.
NOTICE
To prevent dirt and contaminants from entering the hydraulic system,
always plug or cap the lines, fittings, or hoses as they are disconnected.

The C3-290 Controller Group, part number 457-6030, replaces the Crimputer II (C2) controller used on listed
radial hose machines. This controller will enable these machines to remain in service providing the capability to
service expanded hose and coupling product lines. The existing C2 controller's capacity for more product addition
was consumed.
The controller is virtually the same color touch screen panel that is used on the current Cat Radial Hose Machines,
358-4532 and 423-4361. The functionality and operation are the same.
Note: Although the C3-290 controller and the C3 panel used on the current Cat Hose Machines, 358-4532, 457-
6037, 457-6038, and 423-4361 have similar appearance and share the same HMI software, they are not the same
panels and cannot be interchanged
Note: As an energy saving feature on this controller, the hydraulic motor will shut after 20 seconds if none of the
operational buttons are pushed. Push the start button to restart the motor.
