Guarantee
Sampo Rosenlew Ltd provides a guarantee covering defects in material and workmanship, starting from the delivery date. The guarantee excludes coverage for freight costs, transport damage, misuse, non-compliance with instructions, and natural wear of parts such as rubber hoses and light bulbs. It also excludes damages due to unauthorized modifications and indirect damages like loss of output. The guarantee is void if the temperature drops below -25°C or if ownership changes. Claims must be submitted within two weeks of damage.

Structure and Functions
The Sampo FR28 forwarder is designed for forest thinning, featuring a light and easy-to-handle structure that minimizes damage to trees and roots. It has articulated steering, with the engine and hydraulic components located on the front frame and the crane on the rear frame. The forwarder is equipped with various components such as a bogie, gearbox, drive motor, and hydraulic pumps.

Operator Control Instruments
The forwarder includes a PC display, weighing machine display, and various controls for driving and crane operation. The instrument panel features switches for lights, brakes, and other functions. The ceiling equipment includes alarm lights and a radio. Vertical levers control gear, log gate, and differential locks, while crane control levers manage boom and rotator movements.

Operation and Adjustments
Before operation, the main power must be turned on, and the engine started. The parking brake must be released before driving. The forwarder features automatic brakes and frame lock systems. The seat and joystick positions are adjustable for operator comfort. The forwarder has positive hydraulic brakes controlled by pedals and a dual-position switch. The parking brake engages automatically when the engine is off.

Traction Transmission
The forwarder uses a hydrostatic power transmission system with two gear speed ranges for different driving conditions. The driving direction is selected via a switch, and speed is controlled by a pedal and potentiometer. Four-wheel drive and differential locks are available for enhanced traction.

Engine Operation
The engine features a safety ignition system and is started with an ignition key. Diesel RPMs are controlled by buttons near the joystick. The engine should idle before being switched off. A vacuum pump protects the hydraulic system during maintenance.

Main Power Switch
The forwarder has an electric main power switch controlling all electrical instruments, located under a lid on the front left-hand side.

Power Management
When leaving the cab for an extended period, switch off the main power to prevent battery drainage. The emergency stop switch cuts off the diesel engine but maintains electrical current, engaging parking brakes and disabling steering.

Cabin Environment Control
The fresh-air fan provides ventilation, with airflow direction adjustable via panel nozzles. Regular cleaning or replacement of the air filter is necessary to maintain air purity. The heater uses engine coolant to regulate cabin temperature, while the air conditioner uses refrigerant HFC R134A, with a recommended fill of 1.7 kg. A temperature difference of over 8°C between indoor and outdoor is discouraged for health reasons.

Lighting
Working lights can be controlled via switches on the instrument panel, with a delayed light function available for some lights.

Towing Instructions
Towing should only be done from designated points, with the load space emptied. The operator must be in the cab with the engine running for steering. If the engine cannot start, mechanical brake release is necessary.

Engine Specifications
The engine is a water-cooled, four-stroke diesel with power transmitted to hydraulics and traction pumps. The air intake system includes a prefilter and paper filter, with blockage warnings displayed on the Iqan monitor.

Fuel and DEF Requirements
The fuel tank holds 200 liters of high-quality diesel. DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) is required for emission standards, stored in a 15-liter tank. DEF consumption is 6-8% of diesel usage, with lower consumption in cold weather. Handling DEF requires caution due to its corrosive nature.

Daily Engine Checks
Check oil levels daily, ensuring they are near maximum. The cooling system uses a coolant with 40-50% ethylene glycol. Monitor coolant temperature on the Iqan display, ensuring it remains between 75-95°C.

Hydraulics
Hydraulics are divided into traction and working systems, with a joint oil tank. Traction hydraulics include a drive pump and motor, while working hydraulics involve a work pump and directional valve. Pressure changes require manufacturer permission.

Electrical System
Fuses are located on the circuit board below the side instrument panel. Oversized fuses should not be used, and repeated fuse blows require investigation.

Iqan Control System
The Iqan monitor includes a display and several control buttons. Notifications and warnings are displayed, with seven types ranging from messages to critical alerts.

Overview
The document provides detailed instructions on the operation and maintenance of the Iqan machine control system, focusing on its display menus, system settings, measurement and adjustment procedures, internal diagnostics, and service and maintenance guidelines.

1. Notifications and Warnings
The Iqan system issues messages, alarms, or errors for notifications and warnings. Diesel engine and base machine notifications are primarily informational.

2. Iqan Display Menus
The Iqan display features a graphical user interface with a structured menu system. Key menus include:

Basic Display Menus: Access adjustments, measurements, settings, and information pages.
Main Menu: Contains setup, input/output measurements, settings, and module status logs.
System Information: View software details and module information.
Settings: Change display settings, date, time, and language.
Measuring: Measure sensors and valves, toggle between raw and scaled values.
Adjustments: Adjust outputs and parameters, password-protected for certain groups.

3. Internal Diagnostics
Access the diagnostics page by pressing specific buttons while powering on. Exit by switching off and on again.

4. Instrument Panel Display
Displays diesel engine revolutions, fuel gauge, coolant temperature, AdBlue gauge, and hydraulic oil thermometer. Symbols indicate active problems and gear engagement.

5. Submenus
Provide access to crane adjustments, diesel temperatures, oil pressure, and operating hours. Adjust diesel engine revolution speed and view various parameters.

6. Parameters in the Iqan Control System
Drivers can adjust crane speed, steering, and dampening settings. Power limits can be set for various functions to manage engine load.

7. Service and Maintenance
Emphasizes safety and proper qualifications for installations and adjustments. Key maintenance tasks include:

Checking engine oil, coolant, and hydraulic oil levels.
Daily lubrication and checking of connections.
Cleaning radiator grilles and checking tyre air pressure.

8. Safety and General Instructions
Ensure safety by stopping the engine, removing the key, and balancing moving parts. Follow maintenance schedules to prevent malfunctions and ensure warranty validity.
