5. AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFFS
5 - 2
P/N 569300
Y Alternator Not Charging
When the fan belt breaks, or the alternator
output falls below a safe level for other reasons,
the engine automatically shuts off and an alarm
sounds. As long as the SR battery is charged
you can lower the platform, in the usual way,
from the platform-control box or the base-control
panel without the engine running.
Y Outriggers (option)
The SR cannot be driven unless the outriggers
are completely up. If you have just raised the
outriggers but the SR will not drive, double check
to be sure all four outriggers are completely up.
Y Hydraulic Generator (option)
The SR cannot be driven nor can the platform be
raised while the 120 V ac, hydraulically powered,
generator is running (the
GENERATOR/MACHINE switch is set to
GENERATOR).

CIRCUIT BREAKERS
Y Main Breaker
There is only one circuit breaker, on a standard
SR, that is accessible to the operator. Its
purpose is to protect the electrical circuits from
electrical overloads. When the circuit breaker
trips (pops out) push it back in then attempt to
use the SR. If the circuit breaker trips a second
time, take the SR out of service and refer the
problem to a qualified trained service technician
for repair.
Y Hydraulic Generator Circuit Breaker
(option)
SRs that have hydraulically powered ac
generators have a circuit breaker at the
generator to protect the generator from
overloads. If the breaker trips (pops out) do the
following:
Turn the MACHINE/GENERATOR switch to
MACHINE.
Disconnect whatever is plugged into the ac
outlet on the platform.
After the breaker has had time to cool off,
push it back in then attempt to reuse the
generator in the normal way.
If the breaker trips a second time, refer the
problem to a qualified trained service technician.
Y GFCI Outlet (option)
The GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupt) will
protect against short circuits to ground. When
there is a short to ground the GFCI will shut off
power to the outlet.
To reset the outlet:
Unplug the equipment being used.
Press the RESET button on the GFCI outlet.
This should restore power to the outlet. If it does
not, set the AC OUTLET SWITCH to off (O) and
refer the problem to a trained service technician.
NOTE: The GFCI does not protect against
electrical overloads.
