machine drive speed. If the pothole guards do not
deploy and the platform is raised above 1.8 m, an
alarm sounds and the machine will not drive.

Result: When the platform is raised 1.2 m from
the ground, the pothole guards should deploy.
40 Press on the pothole guards on one side, and
then the other.
Result: The pothole guards should not move.
41 Lower the platform.
Result: The pothole guards should return to the
stowed position.

pothole guard. Raise the platform.
Result: Before the platform is raised 2.1 m from
the ground, an alarm should sound and the drive
function should not work.
