Traveling in Reverse
1.
Position the emergency stop switch at the platform control
station to the on position.
2.
Press the drive switch and move the control handle back
-
ward (reverse) and hold for the duration of travel. Drive
speed is determined by the distance the control handle is
moved from the center off position. Do not activate the high
engine speed switch when traveling in reverse.
NOTE:
To ensure proper operation of the desired platform function,
move the joystick in the direction of the black or white arrow
that matches the color of the arrow on the chassis for the
intended direction of travel.
Traveling on Grade
If driving at high drive up a grade and the incline exceeds 8° incline, the
drive function will cut back to mid drive speed. The drive pump will
shift back into high drive once the incline decreases to 5°. There will be
a 2 second delay before the machine goes back to high drive.
Steering
NOTE:
When static steering is performed it will bring the engine up to
high speed.
To steer the machine, the thumb operated steer control switch on the
controller handle is positioned to the right for traveling right, or to the
left for traveling left. When released, the switch will return to the cen
-
ter-off position and the wheels will remain in the previously selected
position. To return the wheels to the straightened position, the switch
must be activated in the opposite direction until the wheels are cen
-
tered.
Leveling Jacks Operation
The machine may be equipped with auto leveling jacks with a manual
adjust feature. These leveling jacks are activated through a switch on
the platform console.
NOTE:
When leveling jacks are activated, engine speed will run at high
idle.
Auto Leveling
1.
With the platform in the stowed position, turn the power on
and start machine.
2.
Select the Level function on the three-position switch on the
platform control console.
3.
While squeezing the trigger switch on the controller, move
the controller forward to lower the leveling jacks.
4.
Once the leveling jacks make contact with the ground sur
-
face, there will be up to a 5 second delay before the actual
auto leveling begins.
NOTE:
Due to varying ground conditions, there may be several delays
between machine level corrections. Be sure ample time is
allowed for all leveling adjustments to be completed.
