Friction Drive Assist Package
The friction drive assist package is an option to have

platform to be moved over short distances with ease.
Use the following procedure to operate the friction drive:
1. Ensure that the booms are fully lowered and all
outriggers are fully raised.
2. Push down on the friction drive hand lever to engage
the drive cylinders against the tires until they lock
overcentre (refer to Figure 10.6).
