8 - Test the Key Switch
This procedure is to be performed every 3 months or every 250 hours, whichever comes first.
Proper key switch action and response is essential to safe machine operation. The machine can be
operated from the ground or platform controls and the activation of one or the other is accomplished
with the key switch. Failure of the key switch to activate the appropriate control panel could cause a
hazardous operating situation.
Perform this procedure from the ground using the platform controls. Do not stand in the platform.

This procedure is to be performed every 3 months or every 250 hours, whichever comes first.
The horn is activated at the platform controls and sounds at the ground as a warning to ground
personnel. An improperly functioning horn will prevent the operator from alerting ground personnel of
hazards or unsafe conditions.
