TROUBLE SHOOTING: 

 
If unit will not operate: 
 

 

Has the boom lift been unhitched from the vehicle? 

 

Check battery indicator to check for charge.  The unit can be plugged in while in 
operation. 

 

Are both of the wheels off of the ground? 

 

Make sure all outrigger lights are on.  If a light is out, the unit will not run. 

 

Make sure both red safety stop switches have been pulled out.  If one is depressed, the unit 
will not operate. 

 

Check safety switches on boom and boom cradles to be sure they are functioning properly. 

 

If machine still fails to operate, send unit back to the store for substitution. 

 

 
If the outriggers will not rise to transport position: 
 

 

The boom or basket has not been completely lowered to allow the unit to settle into the 
safety switch.  Lower all booms and basket completely down into stowed position.  Try 
again.
