SECTION 4. MACHINE OPERATION
4.1 DESCRIPTION
This machine is a mobile elevating work platform used to posi-
tion personnel, along with their necessary tools and materials at
work locations.
The primary operator control console is in the platform. From this
control console, 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 355 degree non-continuous. The machine has a
Ground Control Console which will override the Platform Control
Console. Ground Controls operate all functions except drive and
steer, 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.
