If the engine is running, it will stop when the switch is
placed in the emergency power position.
Throttle Switch
The throttle switch (refer to Figure 6.5) is used to set the
engine throttle speed to either low or high idle.
Place the switch in the low position for normal machine
operation and in high to drive at maximum speed.
The engine has a three speed throttle operation from
the upper controls. Independent of the throttle switch,
the platform foot switch, when depressed, increases the
engine speed from low to mid-range.
High engine speed is obtained when the main boom
is horizontal, the foot switch is depressed, the throttle
switch is in the high position, and the drive joystick is
moved out of neutral into the forward or reverse posi-
tion.
The machine can be driven in mid-range engine speed
with the throttle switch place in the low position.
Horn Button
The horn button is on the right side of the upper control
panel. Press the button to sound the horn.
Platform Foot Switch
The upper controls are interlocked through the platform
foot switch (refer to Figure 6.6). Step down on and hold
the platform foot switch to activate the drive and boom
functions from the upper controls.
