The lifting platform has two separate movement modes: Transport mode and Work
mode (direction of forward movement).
Transport mode: the lifting platform’s arms are in the Low position and the telescope
is retracted; the pendular arm may be raised completely. This mode enables you
to move at high speed and operate beyond the tilt limit of the machine (See the
CHARACTERISTICS section).
