(4WD Machines) - The forward position gives maximum
drive speed by shifting the drive motors to minimum displacement and giving high engine when drive controller
is moved. The back position gives maximum torque for
rough terrain and climbing grades by shifting the wheel
motors to maximum displacement and giving high
engine speed when drive controller is moved. The center position allows the machine to be driven as quietly as
possible by leaving the engine at mid speed and the
drive motors in maximum displacement.
(2WD Machines) - The forward position selects maximum speed by operating at high engine rpm. The backward position selects mid engine rpm.
2. Platform Leveling Override
This switch adjusts the level of the platform.

SECTION 4. MACHINE OPERATION
4.1DESCRIPTION
This machine is a self-propelled hydraulic lift equipped with a
work platform on the end of an elevating, articulating and
rotating boom. Vibrations emitted by these machines are not
hazardous to an operator in the work platform. The equivalent continuous A-Weighted sound pressure level at the work
platform is less than 70dB(A).
The primary operator control station is in the platform. From
this control station, the operator can drive and steer the
machine in both forward and reverse directions. The operator can raise or lower the boom or swing the boom to the left
or right. Standard boom swing is 357 degree non-continuous
left and right of the stowed position. The machine has a
Ground Control Station which will override the Platform Control Station. Ground Controls operate Boom Lift and Swing,
and are to be used in an emergency to lower the platform to
the ground should the operator in the platform be unable to
do so. The Ground Control is also to be used in Pre-Start
Inspection.
4.2OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS AND
LIMITATIONS
Capacities
The boom can be raised above horizontal with or without any
load in platform, if:
1. Machine is positioned on a smooth, firm and level surface.
2. Load is within manufacturer’s rated capacity.
