Switch Panel
The switch panel contains three rows of switches for
the operation of standard and optional equipment on
the telescopic handler.
Top Row Switches
Switches have graphic symbols to indicate function
and effect. The following mode descriptions start with
the first switch on the left.
A - Steering Mode:
This 3-position switch is used to
select among the three steering modes. The upper posi-
tion selects the 4-wheel steering mode. This mode
selects all-wheel steering for making tighter turns, usu-
ally on a jobsite. The center position selects the 2-
wheel steering mode. This mode selects front wheel
steering only, used for higher speed travel. The lower
position selects the crab steering mode. This mode is
used when a small amount of side shift is needed for
picking or placing a load.
NOTE:
The rear wheels are not self-centering.
Make sure all wheels are in a straight-ahead posi-
tion before changing the steering mode.
Any of the steering modes can be used in both forward
and reverse travel. The operator should learn to antici-
pate changes in machine movement if the steering
mode must be changed.
B - High/Low Speed:
This switch is used to select the
travel speed. Press the top of the switch to select low
speed, used for load pickup and placement, or when-
ever low speed operation is desired. Press the bottom
of the switch to select high speed, used for road travel.
IMPORTANT:
Be sure machine is stopped before
changing travel speeds.
C - Blank
D - Parking Brake:
When the machine is parked, this
switch should be pressed to actuate the parking brake
mechanism in the front axle.
Middle Row Switches
Switches have graphic symbols to indicate function
and effect. The following mode descriptions start with
the first switch on the left.
NOTE:
Some switches are optional and may not
be on machine.
E - Head Lights/Work Lights:
Pressing the top of the
switch will illuminate the lights mounted on the top of
the operator’s station and the red tail lights for forward
travel operations. Pressing the bottom of the switch
will illuminate the lights at the end of the boom in
addition to the lights on the operator’s station for addi-
tional lighting in working operations.
