Raising and Lowering the Tower Boom

This machine has two controls for the tower boom (two toggle
switches), one controls tower lift, the other tower telescope. The
switching system will sequence its Lift and Telescope functions as
follows:

1.

Sequence while raising the Tower Boom from the fully low-
ered position.

a. The Tower Boom must be fully elevated “up”

(approximately 13 degrees from vertical)
before the Tower Boom can be extended
from the fully retracted position.

b. The Tower Telescope “out” or “in” will only

be operable when the Tower Boom is fully
elevated “up”.

2.

Sequence while lowering the Tower Boom from the fully ele-
vated “up” position.

a. Operate Tower Telescope “in” until Tower

Boom is fully retracted. (Tower must not lift
“down until boom is telescoped ”in” or “up”
fully.

b. The Tower lift “down” will only operate when

the Tower Boom is fully retracted.

TO AVOID TILTING MACHINE IF TOWER BOOM SWITCHING MALFUNCTIONS:

— LOWER PLATFORM TO GROUND USING MAIN BOOM LIFT AND TELESCOPE FUNC-
TIONS.

— HAVE CONDITION CORRECTED BY A CERTIFIED JLG SERVICE TECHNICIAN BEFORE
CONTINUING USE OF MACHINE.
