Swing-Out Trays

Batteries and hydraulic components are enclosed in

swing-out trays (refer to Figure 9.4) on each side of the

chassis.

Figure 9.4 – Swing-Out Trays

The battery trays each contain two batteries. There is

a battery tray at the front of the machine, both sides

of the chassis.

The control valve tray on the right side of the chassis

contains the hydraulic control valve with the free-

wheeling valve, brake release valve and the brake

hand pump. The diagnostic center LCD display is

also in this tray.

The hydraulic tray on the left side of the chassis con-

tains the hydraulic pump, reservoir and fluid filter.

Danger

The aerial platform can tip over if it becomes unstable.

Death or serious injury can result from a tip-over ac-

cident. Do not open the trays when the platform is

raised more than eight feet.

To open a tray, pull upward on the latch and swing

the tray open.

The latched tray must be opened first, before the bat-

tery tray can be opened.

When closing the trays, close the battery tray first. The

latched tray holds both trays in the closed position.

Latch

Tray

8′ (2.4 m). Place the drive range switch in high for normal

machine operation.

Caution

The extension deck is free to move when the exten-

sion handle locks are disengaged. Personal injury may

result from accidentally extending or retracting the

deck. Make certain both extension handle locks are

fully engaged when the deck is extended in the work-

ing position and when it is stowed. Do not attempt to

extend or retract the platform unless the aerial platform

is on a level surface.

Place the drive range switch in low, with the platform fully

lowered and the extension deck locked in the stowed

position, before driving up a ramp to load the machine

for transport.

Drive Speeds

The drive speed is proportional to the joystick position.

The farther the joystick is moved, the faster the travel

speed.

Always slow down before traveling over rough terrain or

any sloped surface.

Drive speed ranges are interlocked through limit switches

that sense the platform position.

When the platform is elevated below approximately

6′ (1.8 m) the aerial platform may be driven with the

full range of drive speeds.

When the platform is elevated above 6′ (1.8 m) only

the slowest drive speed will work.

Warning

The potential for an accident increases when safety

devices do not function properly. Death or serious

injury could result from such accidents. Do not alter,

disable, or override any safety device.

Do not use the aerial platform if it drives faster than 0.4

mph (0.6 km/h), which is 7′ 7″ (5.3 m) in 30 seconds,

when elevated above 6′ (1.8 m).

Drive/Lift Level Sensor Interlock

When the platform is elevated above 6′ (1.8 m), lift and

drive functions are interlocked through a level sensor

system. If the chassis is tilted more than one and a half

degrees side-to-side or more than four degrees front-to-

rear, platform raise and drive functions are disabled and

an alarm sounds when those controls are activated.

If the drive/lift level sensor interlock shuts off the platform

raise and drive functions, lower the platform and drive to

a level surface.
