Hydraulic Immobiliser

1How does it work?

The Kaymac immobiliser disables the main hydraulic functions of the machine, transmission, boom actions etc, by diverting the oil flow back to the tank.

2How long does it take to fit?

The larger the machine the better access to components by the installer, so smaller machines may take a little longer. On average the Kaymac kit can be fitted in under 2 hours. Each kit comes with easy to follow illustrated instructions.

3Can the immobiliser be bypassed?

The system has been devised so as to prevent anyone other than the owner/installer, with the genuine pipe work to return the machine to original. Multiple fitting of the correct type are required, and a sound knowledge of the machine's hydraulic system is needed.

4What about the keys?

Two keys are issued with every device, however extra keys can be available when you purchase the Kaymac. The keys have been designed to prevent duplications, and each new batch of lock valves produced are accompanied by a number of new key combinations. Replacement keys are available but only with proof of purchase and personal identification. A secure database is kept and particulars of each sale is recorded.
