SECTION 4. MACHINE OPERATION
4.1 DESCRIPTION
This machine is a self-propelled hydraulic personnel lift
equipped with a work platform on the end of an elevating
and rotating boom.
The primary operator control station is in the platform. From
this control station, the operator can drive and steer the
machine in both forward and reverse directions. The opera-
tor can raise or lower the main or tower boom or swing the
boom to the left or right. Standard boom swing is 360 degree
continuous left and right of the stowed position. The machine
has a Ground Control Station which will override the Platform
Control Station. Ground Controls operate Boom Lift and
Swing, and are to be used in an emergency to lower the plat-
form to the ground should the operator in the platform be
unable to do so.
