Boom Control Lever
(Figure 12)
The boom control lever is a joystick with variable motion from the center to
control the boom functions:
Boom Raise ........................ move lever backward
Boom Lower........................ move lever forward
Boom Extend .......................move lever to the right
Boom Retract .......................move lever to the left
Two boom functions can be accomplished at the same time by moving the
lever into the proper quadrant. For example: moving the lever forward and to
the left will lower and retract the boom simultaneously.
The speed of the function depends directly upon the amount of lever travel
in the corresponding direction. Increasing the engine speed will also
increase the function speed.
