Deutz Engine with Ether Start
The ether start system in the diesel engine functions auto-
matically to provide starting fluid, as necessary, to the
engine. A sensor switch mounted on the engine will per-
mit ether injection when the engine is cold. The sensor will
not permit ether injection to a warm engine.
In addition to the ether start system, the cold weather
package also includes an electric immersion heater for the
hydraulic oil tank, and an electric blanket type heater for
the battery. These components can be plugged in
together or singly to preheat their associated components
for easier cold weather starting.
Isuzu Engine
The cold weather package for the Isuzu engine consists of
the engine block heater (an electrical heater installed in
the left front core plug hole), an electric immersion heater
for the hydraulic oil tank, and an electric blanket type
heater for the battery. These components can be plugged
in together or singly to preheat their associated compo-
nents for easier cold weather starting.
Ford Engine
Two different options are available for cold weather with
the Ford engine; an engine block heater and a cold
weather package which also includes the engine block
heater.
The engine block heater is an electrical heater installed in
the left (intake side) core plug hole. When plugged in, it
heats the engine coolant to warm the engine prior to start-
ing.
The cold weather package consists of the engine block
heater mentioned above, an immersion heater for the
hydraulic oil tank, and an electric blanket type heater for
the battery. These components can be plugged in
together or singly to preheat their associated components
for easier cold weather starting.
5.6 TRAVEL ALARM
A 12-volt alarm horn, mounted on the turntable, provides
an audible warning when the machine is in the travel
(DRIVE) mode. It will function in FORWARD or REVERSE
to warn jobsite personnel the machine is traveling.
5.7 ELECTRIC GENERATOR
An electric generator mounted on the machine functions
to supply electrical power to the platform. This device will
provide enough power to run assorted power tools.
5.8 FOAM FILLED TIRES
Eliminates flats by filling tires with polyurethane foam. For
use where sharp objects are frequently encountered on
operating surface of jobsite.
5.9 ROTATING BEACON
An amber or red rotating beacon may be installed on the
hood or platform, and can be controlled by a two position
toggle switch mounted on the platform control console.
When the switch is placed in the ON position, the light is
activated and provides a visual warning to the machine’s
operation.
5.10 CYLINDER BELLOWS
A one piece accordion shaped rubber bellows may be
attached to the rod end of the cylinder barrel and to the
cylinder rod as close to the rod attach bushing as possi-
ble. The bellows affords protection to the cylinder rod in
either the extended or retracted position. The bellows are
installed on the lift cylinder, slave cylinder, master cylinder
and steer cylinder.
5.11 BOOM WIPERS
