Inside Door Latch
Refer to Figure 3-12.
The door will latch if slid fully open and will need to be
unlatched to close the door.
When seated, and before lowering the left-hand armrest
controls, move the inside door handle (1) to the front and use
the grab handle (2) above the door latch to slide the door
forward until it latches.
To open the door, pull the door handle to the rear; the latch
releases and the door slides rearwards.
Fire Extinguisher
The Fire Extinguisher is located on the left rear side of the
cab behind the operator’s seat. The Fire Extinguisher is a BC
rated dry type fire extinguisher for emergency use.
Emergency Exit
The front window is considered the Emergency Exit. In an
emergency push out on the window and exit through the
opening.
Dead Man’s Switch and Seat Contact Switch
The dead man’s switch is located on the front of each joystick
controller handle.
The seat contact switch (not visible) is located inside the
seat.
Together these switches protect all crane functions. You
must sit on the crane cab seat or must be pressing at least
one of the dead man’s switches to operate a crane function.
If you stand up during crane movement or the dead man’s
switch is not pressed, all crane movements are brought to a
complete stop within three seconds even if the control lever
is moved.
Jib Release Pole
The Jib Release Pole is stored on the right side of the cab. It
is used by the operator to release the jib locking mechanism
from the ground.

The RCL warning lights (red, yellow, green) are located on
