Snorkel Guard
To test the Snorkel Guard system:
1. Start the engine.
2. At the lower controls, pull the emergency stop button
outward and place the control selector in the upper
control position.
3. At the upper controls, pull the emergency stop button
outward.
4. Step down on the platform foot valve.
5. Press down on the Snorkel Guard rail and verify that
the machine functions are disabled.
6. Release the Snorkel Guard rail. Verify that all ma-
chines function operate.
Placards and Decals
To inspect the placards and decals:
1. Inspect all safety and operational placards and de-
cals. Make certain they are in place, in good condi-
tion, and are legible.
2. Clean the placards and decals with soap and water,
and a soft cloth if the words or pictures cannot be
seen.
Caution
Solvents may contain hazardous ingredients. Follow
the manufacturer’s label for proper use and disposal.
Wear protective gloves and splash-proof safety
glasses when using solvents.
3. Remove wet paint overspray using a natural biode-
gradable solvent and a soft cloth.
4. Replace any missing or illegible placards or decals
before operating the aerial platform.
Placard and decal kits are available from Snorkel.
The safety related placards and decals are illustrated on
the following pages.
Warning
The potential for an accident increases when operat-
ing an aerial platform that is damaged or malfunction-
ing. Death or serious injury could result from such
accidents. Do not operate the aerial platform if it is
damaged or malfunctioning.
4. Test the platform foot valve by moving a boom
function control without stepping on the foot valve.
If movement occurs the interlock is not functioning
properly. Do not operate the machine until the prob-
lem is corrected.
5. Test the operation of each control in both directions
from the upper controls.
6. The drive range switch and maximum travel speeds
are interlocked through limit switches on the riser
and the main boom that senses the position of the
booms.
• When the main boom is raised approximately 1 ½ ″
(3.8 cm) or extended approximately 1 ″ (2.5 cm),
the machine should travel in low speed only.
• To operate in high speed the booms must be
stowed.
Emergency Stop
To test the emergency stop button from the upper
controls:
1. At the lower controls, start the engine and place the
control selector switch in the upper control position.
2. At the upper controls, push the emergency stop but-
ton inward to turn off electrical power.
3. Verify that the engine shuts off and the upper control
functions do not operate.
