SINGLE STICK OPERATION
The control location shown is generic. The actual location will vary depending on purchasers requirements
and options. Some of the following control functions may not be included in the controls for this Aerial
Device. Refer to the control decals on unit for proper operation.
SINGLE STICK CONTROL LABEL
The decals are an integral part of this Aerial Device. If the decals are illegible, they must
be replaced.
Always operate controls slowly and deliberately for smooth movements. Rough handling
is never excusable and may cause damage to the Aerial Device and endanger the
operator.
Be sure the control handle is in the centered neutral position before depressing enabling
lever. Return the control handle to centered neutral position before releasing the enabling
lever. Failure to observe these rules will cause sudden and unexpected movement of the
platform. Serious injury or death could result when working in confined spaces or near
electrical power lines.
The Aerial Device upper control station has metallic parts, which are necessary to
provide the structural support for the various components. These metallic parts are
interconnected. The main shaft that supports the platform and controls must also support
other load carrying options that can be added to the boom tip.
The fiberglass upper and lower boom, in a well maintained condition, provides electrical
insulation between the boom tip and the truck as a potential to ground. This fiberglass will
not protect the operator in the platform if any portion of the boom tip, including options, is
brought into contact with an energized or non-energized conductor and the operator is in
contact with a different potential, such as, a grounded non-energized conductor. This
type of contact can energize or ground the controls because as stated before, all
components of the boom tip are interconnected. The fiberglass will not provide protection
for the operator in phase to phase contact or a phase to ground contact, nor will it protect
the vehicle from becoming energized if the steel boom section below the lower boom
insert, if so equipped, is brought into contact with an energized conductor.
