2. Start/Auxiliary Power
When pushed forward, the switch energizes the starter
motor to start the engine.
When pushed back, it energizes the electrically operated
hydraulic pump, when actuated. (Switch must be held ON
for duration of auxiliary pump use.)
The auxiliary pump functions to provide sufficient oil flow to
operate the basic machine functions should the main pump
or engine fail. The auxiliary pump will operate platform
rotate, jib lift, jib swing, platform level override, main boom
lift, main telescope and swing.
3. Capacity Select
This switch allows the operator to select between an operat-
ing envelope with a 500 lb. (227 kg for ANSI markets and 230
kg for CE and Australia markets) capacity restriction or a
1000 lb. (454 kg for ANSI markets and 450 kg for CE and Aus-
tralia markets) capacity restriction.
4. Drive Orientation Override
When the boom is swung over the rear tires or further in
either direction, the Drive Orientation indicator will illumi-
nate when the drive function is selected. Push and release
the switch, and within 3 seconds move the Drive/Steer con-
trol to activate drive or steer. Before driving, locate the black/
white orientation arrows on both the chassis and the plat-
form controls. Move the drive controls in a direction match-
ing the directional arrows.
NOTE: To operate the Drive Joystick, pull up on the locking ring below
the handle.
NOTE: The DRIVE control levers are spring-loaded and will automati-
cally return to neutral (OFF) position when released.
5. Drive/Steer
The DRIVE joystick provides for driving either forward or
backward. The controller is ‘ramped’ to allow variable drive
speed.
Steering is controlled by a thumb operated switch on top of
the joystick.
