Aerial Functions
The activation of the swing, telescope, and boom functions are
controlled using their corresponding joystick control. The swing,
telescope and boom functions are permitted for use throughout
the published reach diagram. Upon initial power up of the Radio
Remote Transmitter, both the main and auxiliary hoist functions
are disabled and will not operate during aerial mode.
Set function operating speed options on the platform controls
such as engine RPM (reference item 21 & 22) and hydraulic
speed (reference item 25) as desired. Depending on the skill
level of the operator and the aerial lift application, activation of
more than one control at a time is permissible. To assure smooth
operation of the aerial lift, always return Platform Control levers
to neutral and function stops before moving the lever in the
opposite direction.
Perform pre-start inspection and test, (Reference Pre-Start
Functional Test, page 9-2) of the aerial lift platform controls.
Before operation of any platform control function make sure
