■ Electrical System
Electrical power is supplied from a 335 amp/hour,
12 volt battery This battery supplies 12 volt DC
electrical power to operate the aerial platform
electrical and electro hydraulic components.
Batteries give off hydrogen and oxygen that
can combine explosively. Death or serious
injury can result from a chemical explosion.
Do not smoke or permit open flames or
sparks when checking the batteries.
Even with low voltage electrical systems,
severe arcing can occur. Electrical shock or
component damage can result from contact
