Raising and lowering
You can adjust the sensitivity of the control levers to suit the
operating conditions, refer to Setting the characteristic
curves for the control levers, page 4-84.
You can regulate the speed by moving the control lever or
changing the engine speed.
You can limit the maximum lifting/lowering speed
(Figure 4-107), refer to Limiting the power unit speeds, page
4-85.
Switching off the lifting/lowering mechanism
If the lifting/lowering mechanism is not required, it should be
switched off to avoid unintentional use.
Press the button (1, Figure 4-108) once.
Symbol (2) will be red if the lifting/lowering mechanism is
switched off.
Telescoping mechanism
A telescoping process requires locking and unlocking
processes in the main boom. You can telescope the main
boom in different ways.
Manual telescoping
For manual telescoping, you must initiate all locking and
unlocking processes at the right time.
Telescoping with semi-automation
When telescoping with semi-automation, you enter a
telescoping value and CCS controls all the locking and
unlocking processes automatically. You can also use this
mode for intermediate lengths.
NOTE: For more information on telescoping with semi-
automation refer to Telescoping with semi-
automation, page 4-70.
Extending with the main boom configuration
The CCS display shows various sectional views of the main
boom. To make you familiar with these representations more
quickly, the following section begins with an overview of the
telescoping mechanism and a telescoping process.
Overview
This illustration (Figure 4-109) shows the completely
retracted main boom with the base section (9) and the first
three telescopic sections I to III (1) to (3).
Lowering:
Push the control lever (Figure 4-106) to the
right – the main boom is lowered.
Raising:
Push the control lever to the left – the main
boom is raised.
