tires are better suited for sandy soil than
standard tires. Big Paws increase the overall
width of the SR.
D A N G ER
Death or serious injury can result if an SR
tips over. An air-filled tire that has an air
leak or blow-out is a tipover hazard. Do not
raise the SR platform if any tire has an air
leak or is in such condition that a blow-out
could occur.
Some Big Paw tires are air-filled. Air-filled tires
should be visually checked several times a day
to see that they are properly inflated. Air-filled
tires should be checked very carefully for
imbedded material, cuts, punctures, or abraded
areas. Do not tolerate a suspect tire, it can be
fatal.
NOTE: “Big Paw” is a generic name, it is not
molded into the tire sidewall.
T
FLASHING LIGHT
The flashing light alerts people that the SR is
present and that the SR is moving. The light
flashes at about one flash per second any time
the SR is running. There is no ON/OFF switch
for the flashing light, it cannot be turned off
while the SR is running.
T
ELECTRICAL OUTLET
The electrical outlet on the platform, and its
power cable, are designed to supply 2 kW of
continuous duty power to run power tools of
various sorts. The power can come from either
the optional ac generator, discussed elsewhere
in this chapter, or from an electrical source
outside the SR. If you use an electrical source
outside the SR be sure you disconnect it before
you drive the SR away.
T
SWINGING GATE
The swinging gate is designed to automatically
close after you enter or leave the platform. It
helps prevent people from falling off the
platform.
