OPERATION GUIDELINES
SINGLE STICK FUNCTIONS
The control location shown is generic. The actual location will vary depending on purchasers requirements
and options. Some of the following control functions may not be included in the controls for this Aerial
Device. Refer to the control decals on unit for proper operation.
SINGLE STICK CONTROL LABEL
Be sure the control handle is in the centered neutral position before depressing
enabling lever. Return the control handle to centered neutral position before
releasing the enabling lever. Failure to observe these rules will cause sudden and
unexpected movement of the platform. Serious injury or death could result when
working in confined spaces or near electrical power lines.
The Aerial Device upper control station has metallic parts, which are necessary to
provide the structural support for the various components. These metallic parts
are interconnected. The main shaft that supports the platform and controls must
also support other load carrying options that can be added to the boom tip.
The fiberglass upper and lower boom, in a well maintained condition, provides
electrical insulation between the boom tip and the truck as a potential to ground.
This fiberglass will not protect the operator in the platform if any portion of the
boom tip, including options, is brought into contact with an energized or non-
energized conductor and the operator is in contact with a different potential, such
as, a grounded non-energized conductor. This type of contact can energize or
ground the controls because as stated before, all components of the boom tip are
interconnected. The fiberglass will not provide protection for the operator in phase
to phase contact or a phase to ground contact, nor will it protect the vehicle from
becoming energized if the steel boom section below the lower boom insert, if so
equipped, is brought into contact with an energized conductor.
