Note that it is possible to overstress and overturn the machine while the safety systems are
overridden. The operator should prioritise the use of the Radius in function wherever possible
to assist in correcting the situation.
Once the booms have been lowered to a stowed position, after the over-ride key has been activated,
the blue LED strip will be off indicating that the machine is overridden. The machine must be inspected
and reset by Rail-Ability Ltd prior to being put back into service.
