EMERGENCY OPERATION
In the event of powered function failure, the platform may
be lowered by using the Auxiliary Power Unit. Hold in the
Auxiliary Power Button and operate the lowering controls.
Important: Emergency Stop Buttons should be used
in an emergency only.
NOTE: Emergency Stop does not function during
Auxiliary Powered operation.
NEVER climb down the elevating assembly. If
controls do not respond, ask someone on the
ground to lower the boom manually.
AFTER USE EACH DAY
1. Ensure that the platform is fully lowered.
2. Park the machine on firm level ground, preferably
under cover, secure against vandals, children or
unauthorized operation.
3. Turn the upper key switch to OFF, the lower key
switch to platform and remove all keys to prevent
unauthorized operation.
EMERGENCY TOWING
Perform the following only when the machine will not
operate under its own power and it is necessary to move
the machine or when winching onto a trailer for transpor-
tation.
1. Insure that the platform is fully lowered, and that the
turret is rotated so that the platform is to the rear of
the machine.
2. Attach chain / cable of sufficient strength for towing
the machine to front or rear tie down lugs.
Chock wheels before disengaging hubs. Machine
may roll.
3. Refer to Figure 6 and disengage all four drive hubs.
Remove two screws and center cap. Reinstall center
cap in the opposite direction.
4. When ready to move the machine, remove the
chocks. Toe or winch into position and replace
chocks.
5. Engage all four drive hubs by returning the center
caps to their original orientation.
DO NOT move the machine faster than 5 km/h
[3 mph]. Faster speeds will damage drive
components and void warranty.
