wise to be in the out (on) position. When pushed in (off),
power is shut off to the PLATFORM and GROUND con-
trols.
2. Platform/Ground/Remote Select Key Switch
A three position, key operated switch that provides
power to the platform when in the center (neutral) posi-
tion.
With the key switch turned clockwise and held, only the
ground controls are operational.
With the key switch turned counter clockwise, the plat-
form (remote) control box may be removed from the plat-
form and connected to the cable located in the electrical
components compartment, located below the ground
controls and operated from the ground.
3. Engine Start Buttons (see Figure 3-2.)
To start the engine at the ground control, the select key
switch (item 2) must be in place and in the center (neu-
tral) position. The engine start button (item 3) must be
pushed in until the engine starts. The button on the
RIGHT is for ELECTRIC MOTOR start, the button on the
LEFT is for GAS/DIESEL ENGINE start.
NOTE: When the machine is not stabilized and the engine is
not running, an alarm will sound to indicate that the
key switch on the engine is ON. Turn OFF the key
switch on the engine when not in operation.

The key switch must be turned clockwise and held in that
position in order to operate the boom functions from the
ground controls, item 5 through 10. A green light will illu-
minate to indicate if operation is possible (machine stabi-
lized) from these controls.
