Emergency Lowering

The main function of the emergency lowering is to lower the
platform in the event of primary power failure.

Some functions will not operate since this is a gravity lowering
system and a symbol will appear on the display if one of those
functions are selected.

Operate as follows:

1. Ensure the emergency stop button is in the ON posi-

tion by turning it clockwise.

2. Depress the foot switch.
3. Push and hold down button 4 (item 4) on

the platform/remote control box. The LCD
display will show the symbol shown on
button 4 in position 8 on the LCD display.
(Items 4 and 15, Figure 4-6.)

4. Select a boom function to operate by moving the

paddle controller in the direction for lowering - (items
18, and 21 in Figure 4-6.
)

5. When finished, release the emergency lowering

switch, controller and foot switch.

6. Position the emergency stop switch to the off posi-

tion.

Determine the reason for the primary power failure and have
the problem corrected by a qualified JLG service technician.

areas measuring a minimum of 39 in. (99cm).

allowed.

mounting support.

the platform to the jib platform mounting posts.

direction. Place platform aside for later installation.
