All movements (except for platform rotation and platform level compensation) are controlled by proportional joystick /levers; it is
therefore possible to adjust movement speed by means of the relative controls. To avoid sudden shakes during movements, it is
advisable to operate the proportional joystick controls gradually.
For safety reasons, to operate the machine, it is necessary to press the “dead-man” ZF pedal on the platform. If the “dead-man”
pedal is accidentally released while the machine is operating, the movement is immediately stopped.
WARNING!
Holding down the “dead-man” pedal for over 10 seconds without carrying out any operation will disable the
control panel.
The disabled control panel condition is indicated by the flashing green led (ZA). To operate the machine
again it is necessary to release the “dead-man” pedal and press it again; the green led (ZA) will light up
steady and for the next 10 seconds all controls will be enabled.
