With Boom Elevated
Travel with boom elevated is restricted to firm level
surfaces only.
When driving elevated, the machine will travel at creep
speed (0.30 m [1 foot] per second).
Steering
1. While engaging the hand interlock, push the steering
switch (located on top of the control handle) to the left
to turn left, and right to turn right.
Note: Steering is not self centering. Wheels must be
returned to the straight ahead position by operating
the steering switch.
POSITIONING THE PLATFORM
Positioning the platform as close as possible to the work
area requires some planning. First, you must survey the
work site to find a suitable place to park the machine. This
must be a firm level area as close as possible to the work
area. Take into consideration all obstructions on the
ground and overhead and avoid them.
Always, before operating any function, check the area
around and overhead for any obstructions or electrical
conductors.
Multifunction Controls
The UpRight SB-60 employs the use of multifunction
controls. This means that any two functions can operate
at full speed simultaneously.
The turret may be rotated while driving if necessary to
make turns in tight areas. All other boom functions will not
operate while driving.
Lower Control Operation
Do not operate from lower controls if someone is in
platform, except in emergency situations.
All boom functions will operate at fixed speed.
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.
While depressing the foot switch, move the platform
level control switch forward to swing the platform
upward, rearward to swing the platform downward.
Release the switch to stop leveling. Leveling can be
performed only when boom is stowed and retracted.
Rotating the Turret
While depressing the foot switch, move the boom
rotation joystick to the right to rotate right, left to rotate
left. Release the switch to stop rotation. The turret
rotation will function at a speed proportional to the
stroke of the joystick. Make sure the area around the
boom is clear of all obstructions before rotating the
turret.
Elevating the Boom
While depressing the foot switch, move the joystick
forward to elevate the boom, rearward to lower the boom.
Release the control lever to stop elevating / lowering. The
boom elevate will function at a speed proportional to the
stroke of the joystick.
Extending the Boom
While depressing the foot switch, move the boom
extension control joystick rearward to extend the
boom, forward to retract the boom. Release the
control lever to stop extending / retracting. The boom
extension will function at a speed, proportional to the
stroke of the joystick.
