FLASHING LIGHTS

The flashing lights alert people that the TB120 is
present. The lights flash at about one flash per
second any time the engine is running. There is
no ON/OFF switch for the flashing lights, they
cannot be turned off while the engine is running.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM COLD WEATHER

WARM-UP KIT

The control switch for the HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
COLD WEATHER WARM-UP KIT is located on
the ground-control box near the MASTER KEY
SWITCH
and/or on the left side of the platform-
control box. When the ambient air temperature is
below 32°F (0°C) and boom movement is
sluggish because of cold hydraulic oil, turn the
WARM-UP switch to ON until the hydraulic oil
temperature, in the hydraulic oil tank, reaches
50

°F.

For the warm-up system to work, the engine
must be running and you must turn the WARM-
UP
switch ON from the same station that you
started the engine. (If you started the engine
from the ground-control box, turn the WARM-UP
switch on from the ground-control box. If you
started the engine from the platform-control box,
turn it on there.)

NOTE: If you only have one WARM-UP switch
you must start the engine from the station
where the WARM-UP switch is located if you
want to use the WARM-UP switch.

While the warm-up system is ON, no machine
movement is possible.

T

MOTION ALARM

The motion alarm emits a loud
...beep...beep...beep..., at ground level, anytime
the DRIVE/STEER controller is in FORWARD or
REVERSE. This alarm alerts people on the
ground that the TB120 is traveling along the
ground.

T

PLATFORM WORK LIGHTS

The platform work lights are located on top the
platform guard rail. For the lights to work the
BATTERY switch must be ON and the following
switches, on the ground-control box, must be set
as indicated:

SELECTOR SWITCH.......PLATFORM
EMERGENCY STOP .......pulled out (on)
MASTER KEY SWITCH ...ON

The toggle switch on the back of a light turns it
on.

If you want to change the direction a light points,
use two 1/2” box-end wrenches to loosen the
clamp immediately below the light, point the light
where you want it, then retighten the clamp.

C A U TIO N

Incandescent lights draw three amperes (35
watts) each. Halogen lights draw four amperes
(50 watts) each. If you work with the lights turned
on and the engine turned off, the batteries can
discharge to the point they will not start the
engine nor run the EMERGENCY POWER
hydraulic pump. If you cannot leave the engine
running while the lights are on, start and run the
engine at least 15 minutes in each hour.
