2. Plug an electrical tool into the outlet and verify the

power is off.

• If the power was off, push the reset button to

restore power.

tacle.

Platform Control Cover

The machine may be equipped with an optional platform

control cover. Inspect the cover to ensure it fits properly

over the control panel.

Drive Motion Alarm

The machine may be equipped with an optional drive

motion alarm. Drive in both the forward and reverse direc-

tions to ensure that the alarm sounds to warn personnel

in the area that the aerial platform is in motion.

Driving and Work Lights

The machine may be equipped with driving lights and/or

platform work lights. Turn the engine on and use the

switch on the back of each light to momentarily turn it on

to see that it works.

Platform Glazier Package

Inspect the glazier trays (refer to Figure 7.23) and keeper

pins to make sure they are in good condition and are not

bent or distorted. The straps and padding must be in good

condition and not worn, cut or frayed.

Figure 7.20 – Power-Input Connector

Some machines may have an electrical cable already

plugged into the power-input connector. In that case,

power is supplied by an optional AC generator. An ex-

ternal power source is not required.

With the engine running, place the machine/generator

control (refer to Figure 7.21) in the generator position to

provide electrical power to the two electrical outlets at

the platform and to the outlet on the end of the genera-

tor housing.

Figure 7.21 – Upper Control Panel Front

Plug an electrical tool into the receptacle at the platform

and at the generator and try to operate the tool to verify

proper operation of the outlet.

The outlet is equipped with a ground fault circuit inter-

rupter (GFCI). Use the following procedure to test the

GFCI.

1. Push the test button (refer to Figure 7.22).
