T

FOOT SWITCH

D A N G ER

Serious injury can result from sudden
stops. To avoid sudden stops, do not
remove your foot from the foot switch while
the TB120 is in motion.

The foot switch prevents the platform from
moving if something accidentally pushes one of
the platform-moving controls on the platform-
control box. (Stepping on the foot switch is an
action that must be performed, at the same
time as another, to make the platform move.)

T

GFCI OUTLET

The GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt)
protects against electricity flowing to ground.
When electricity flows to ground the GFCI shuts
off power to the electrical outlets.

To use the outlets, connect the power-input
connector, inside the left-rear of the turntable,
to a source of 125 V ac, 15 A electrical power.

NOTE: If the TB120 has the optional ac
generator, plug the power-input connector
(inside the left-rear of the turntable) into the
generator. Then, set the
MACHINE/GENERATOR switch, on the
platform-control box, to GENERATOR.

NOTE: See “ELECTRICAL OUTLET AT
THE PLATFORM (GFCI)” in the
“OPERATION” chapter for more information
about how to use the GFCI.

T

GRAVITY GATE

The gravity gate (1) is the place in the platform
guardrail system where you should enter and
leave the platform. Raise the gate and step
under it onto the platform. Once you have
entered the platform and attached your fall
restraint lanyard to an anchor point (2), check
to see that the gravity gate (1) has fallen back
into place.

T

GROUND OPERATION SWITCH

The GROUND OPERATION switch prevents
the platform from moving if something
accidentally pushes one of the platform-moving
switches at the ground-control box. (Manually
holding the GROUND OPERATION switch up
is an action that must be performed, at the
same time as another, to make the platform
move.)
