12. Function Speed Control
Adjusts speed of Boom and Swing Functions. Rotate
CCW for slower speed and CW for faster speed. To
adjust Drive, Swing, and Main Lift to creep, turn knob
fully CCW until it clicks.
NOTE: Main Lift, Swing, and Drive control levers are spring-
loaded and will automatically return to neutral (off) posi-
tion when released.
13. Main Lift/Swing
The dual axis joystick is provided for main lift and swing.
Push forward to lift up, pull backward to lift down. Move
right to swing right, move left to swing left. Moving the
joystick activates switches to provide the functions
selected. Proportional control of these functions can be
attained by using the Function Speed knob.
NOTE: Main lift and swing functions may be selected in combina-
tion. The handle features a round gate so that maximum
speed is reduced when multiple functions are selected.
Lower lift will not function when operating upper lift.
14. Drive Orientation Override
When the boom is swung over the rear tires or further in
either direction, the Drive Orientation indicator will illumi-
nate when the drive function is selected. Push and
release the switch, and within 3 seconds move the
Drive/Steer control to activate drive or steer. Before driv-
ing, locate the black/white orientation arrows on both
the chassis and the platform controls and match the
control direction arrow to the intended chassis direction.
15. Soft Touch Override Switch (If equipped)
This switch enables the functions that were cut out by
the Soft Touch system to operate again at creep speed,
allowing the operator to move the platform away from
the obstacle that caused the shutdown situation.
