Emergency Stop Button

The emergency stop is a two-position red push button on

the front of the upper control box. Push the button in to

disconnect power to all control circuits at the upper con-

trols. Pull the button out to restore power.

Note

The lower controls override the upper controls. If the up-

per control emergency stop is engaged the lower con-

trols can still be used to operate the aerial platform.

Push the button in when the upper controls are not in use

to help protect against unintentional platform operation.

Drive/Lift Selector Switch

Place the drive/lift selector switch in the drive position to

drive the aerial platform using the joystick. The platform

will not raise or lower while driving.

Place the drive/lift selector switch in the lift position to

raise and lower the platform using the joystick.

Joystick

Use the joystick (refer to Figure 7.3) to operate the fol-

lowing functions.

• Aerial platform steering

• Aerial platform drive and speed

• Platform raise/lower and speed

Movement of the joystick in a given direction produces a

corresponding movement of the aerial platform. The steer-

ing and drive functions may be operated separately or

simultaneously.

Interlock

The joystick has an interlock switch in the handle. En-

gage the interlock by grasping the joystick and pulling

the switch toward the handle. Engage the interlock to

activate the steering, drive, or lift functions.

Steer Switch

The steer switch is a momentary contact, rocker switch

on top of the joystick. This switch controls the two front

wheels to steer the aerial platform.

To steer to the right, engage the interlock on the joystick

and hold down the right side of the steer switch. To steer

to the left, engage the interlock on the joystick and hold

down the left side of the steer switch.

Note

The steering wheels are not self-centering. Set the steer-

ing wheels straight ahead after completing a turn.

Horn Button

The horn button is on the left side of the upper control

box. Press the button to sound the horn.

Battery Condition Indicator

The optional battery condition indicator gauge is on the

top of the upper control box. It indicates the level of avail-

able battery power to operate the aerial platform.
