Emergency Lowering
The main boom can be lowered in an emergency using
the emergency lowering knob at the base of the lift cylin-
der. The emergency lowering knob allows the main boom

will not start and the emergency power system will not
work.
A

while lowering the booms.
Use the following procedure to manually lower the main
boom.
1. Slowly turn the knob (refer to Figure 10.5) to open
the bleed down valve. Control the rate of descent by
turning the knob.

form on the steepest grade and type of surface that may
be encountered. Refer to Chapter 2 for the gross vehicle
weight of the aerial platform.
