ble is locked (if equipped with a slewing pin, that the
slewing pin is locked), that there are no lose or un-

nal force.
5. After towing, place the machine on solid level
ground and secure the wheels with chocks to pre-
vent the machine from moving.
6. Install the drive hub back to its original position, and

8.5 OVERRIDE OPERATION WITH
AN OVERLOADED PLATFORM
The function “override operation with an overloaded
platform” is only available for certain overseas models.
With the machine in the overweight limit (KG) mode, if
an overload alarm is triggered and the platform needs to
be lowered, the function override operation with an over-
loaded platform should be activated.
• Perform operation from the ground: Activate the de-
sired movement switch while operating the auxiliary
power switch on the ground controls;
• Perform operation from the platform: Depress the
foot switch, move the emergency power switch on
the platform controller, and activate the desired
movement switch.
This will activate the function override operation with an
overloaded platform, and the corresponding movement
can be performed. The time of the override operation
and the actual weight on the platform are shown on the
display and are recorded.
NOTICE
The function override operation with an overloaded
platform may only be used to lower the platform in an
emergency situation when the platform is overloaded.
Before operating the machine using the override
function make sure that the surrounding area is safe/
clear and the machine is in a safe state.
When using the function override operation with
an overloaded platform avoid movements in
directions where the machine may tip over.
Improper operation may cause the machine to tip
over, causing injuries to personnel and severe
damage.
