Using The Emergency Descent In The Case Of
An Outrigger Losing Contact With The Ground
One or more of the outriggers may loose contact with the
ground which will result in the platform/remote control box
functions being inoperable except for emergency lowering.
To restore platform/remote control box functions, lower and
retract the booms and then reposition the machine and
properly set the outriggers.
Use the emergency descent from the platform if possible by
using the following sequence, fully retract main boom, fully
lower jib, fully lower tower boom, and fully lower main boom.
If this is not possible, have a properly trained person on the
ground bypass the platform safety devices and allow the
operator in the platform to lower and retract the booms or
allow emergence manual operations to bring the platform
back to the ground.

above.
2. Activate the safety device bypass by turning the key in a
counterclockwise direction and hold it in position (see
decal).
