Rotating the Turret
1. Set the function speed control dial to the desired
setting. Rotate the dial clockwise to increase
speed, counterclockwise to decrease. If you are
not sure what speed to use, start out slow; the
speed can be varied while operating the function.
2. While depressing the foot switch, turn the turret
rotation control switch counterclockwise to rotate
left, clockwise to rotate right. Release the switch
to stop rotation. Observe the area around the
boom when rotating the turret to avoid any ob-
structions.
Elevating the Riser
1. While depressing the foot switch, push the riser
control lever forward to elevate the riser, rearward
to lower the riser. Release the control lever to
stop elevating / lowering. The riser will function at
a constant speed, function speed control setting
is not necessary.
Elevating the Upper Boom
1. Set the function speed control dial to the desired
setting. Rotate the dial clockwise to increase
speed, counterclockwise to decrease. If you are
not sure what speed to use, start out slow; the
speed can be varied while operating the function.
2. While depressing the foot switch, push the upper
boom control lever forward to elevate the upper
boom, rearward to lower the upper boom. Release
the control lever to stop elevating / lowering.
Once you have moved the machine to a firm level
surface as near as possible to the work area, follow
the instructions on page five to position the platform
as close to the work area as possible.
Always, before operating any function, check the
area around and overhead for any obstructions or
electrical conductors.
NEVER exit the platform while the boom is
elevated. Keep both feet firmly planted on
the platform floor at all times.
Multifunction Controls
The UpRight AB-46 RT employs the use of
multifunction controls. This means that riser or boom
extension will function at full speed while
simultaneously operating upper boom, jib, turret, or
rotating the platform.
The turret may be rotated while driving when boom is
lowered if necessary to make turns in tight areas.
No other boom functions will operate while driving.
Lower Control Operation
All boom functions will operate at fixed speed. Those
which are adjustable will operate at the speed set on
the platform control.
1. Turn chassis keyswitch to chassis controls.
2. With engine running, operate boom control
switches to position the platform.
Leveling the Platform
DO NOT operate the machine if the platform
does not maintain level when elevated.
Note: Platform leveling can be performed only
with the boom stowed and should be done only
to calibrate the automatic leveling system.
1. Set the function speed control dial to the desired
setting. Rotate the dial clockwise to increase
speed, counterclockwise to decrease. If you are
not sure what speed to use, start out slow; the
speed can be varied while operating the function.
2. While depressing the foot switch, push the
platform level control switch forward to swing the
platform upward, rearward to swing the platform
downward. Release the switch to stop leveling.
