PLACING A LOAD
Lb
WARNING
Do not sway the machine with the
boom
angle indicator arrow
(B) at more than 0 degrees.
By
doing so you could cause a roll
over hazard which
may
result in injury or death.
Lb
DANGER
Always apply the parking brake
by
toggling the parking brake
switch (C) forward before lifting and/or placing a load. Failure
to do so could allow the machine to roll over which may result
in injury or death.
& CAUTION
Always bring the machine to a complete stop before applying
the parking brake (C). Failure to do so will damage the parking
brake disc packs, which may void the axle warranty.
Before placing a load, the frame should
be
leveled. This can be
done
by
the use
of
the switch labeled sway control (D) located
on the forward side
of
the right armrest. The frame sway
control is used in conjunction with the machine level indicator
(E) located in the center
of
the cross support that the interior
rear view mirror is mounted on. The sway control switch is
either toggled left or right depending on the particular require-
ment. Adjust the sway control (D) until the indicator ball
on
the
level gauge (E) is
on
the 0 degree mark.
&
WARNING
Always ensure that the machine level indicator (E) is at zero (0)
degrees before raising the boom. Raising the
boom
with an
unlevel machine may cause the machine to overturn, resulting
in injury or death.
&
WARNING
Use the frame sway control to level the machine only when the
boom angle indicator (B) is at 0 degrees
or
less. Using the
frame sway control when the angle indicator is more than 0
degrees may cause the machine to overturn, resulting in injury
or death.
