The engine will run at high idle while the generator is

operating. The generator will continue to operate as long

as the engine is running and the switch is in the genera-

tor position.

Air Line

The optional air line may be used to conduct air for tool

operation at the platform. The input connector is at the

rear of the chassis and the output connector is at the

platform on the rotator guard. The maximum working

pressure of the line is 1,723 kPa (250 psi).

The air line may be used to conduct fluids such as wa-

ter or antifreeze. Contact Snorkel for compatibility infor-

mation before using the air line to conduct other fluids.

A

Caution

Fluid in the air line can damage some air tools or

freeze and damage the line. Drain and blow out the

air line after using it to conduct fluids.

Use the following procedure to drain the air line.

1. Close the input connector on the chassis.

2. Open the output connector at the platform.

3. Raise the boom slightly above horizontal.

4. Open the input connector on the chassis.

5. Allow the fluid to drain from the line.

6. Lower the boom and close both connections.

Driving Lights

The optional driving lights are for use in dimly lit areas

and are not intended for driving on public roadways.

There are two headlights at the front of the chassis and

two blinking taillights at the rear of the chassis.

The lights are operational when the battery disconnect

switch and the master switch are turned on.

Note

Working with the driving or platform work lights on, while

the engine is off, can discharge the batteries enough

that the engine will not start or the emergency power

system will not operate. If the engine cannot be left run-

ning while the lights are on, start and run the engine for

at least 15 minutes each hour.

Platform Work Lights

The optional platform work lights are located on the top

rail of the platform. The direction a light points can be

adjusted by using two
