9.1 CONTROLS FOR GROUND OPERATION
The controls for ground operation are located on the turntable, on the front part of the
engine guard. When the outriggers are in the support position and the engine has been
started from the ground, it is possible to slew, raise and telescope the boom and to raise
and lower the jib boom from the ground operating point. The speed of the movements can
be adjusted steplessly by the speed control potentiometer. The speeds have been
restricted to a safe range. If you wish to use a faster speed, first choose the movement
and then adjust the speed to the desired level.
The emergency lowering system operates by using these controls at the ground operating
point.
When the boom is operated from the ground, the current must be switched on from the
ground. When operated from the platform, the ignition key must be removed from the
ground operating point and placed in the ignition lock on the platform.
