The boom is suspended to reduce shaking of the lift truck on rough ground (e.g. moving
straw in a field).

Boom suspension is active to a lifting height of 3m00 from the axis of articulation of the carriage with
respect to the ground with the boom retracted. When you move beyond this height or make another
hydraulic movement (tilting, telescoping, attachment), boom suspension is momentarily deactivated
and the visual indicator of switch 1 goes out.
