4. Choke (gasoline engines only): Hold the
choke switch up anytime you start a gasoline
engine that is at ambient air temperature (a
“cold” engine).
4. Glow Plug (diesel engines only): This is a
momentary contact switch. Press it up then
release it just before you start a diesel
engine that is at ambient air temperature (a
“cold” engine). This action automatically
causes glow plugs to come on for 30
seconds to warm the inside top of each
cylinder, thus aiding combustion.
5. Lift Indicator Light: The platform can be
raised only when this light is lit. When this
light is not lit the platform will not rise
because: the platform is not level, or the
stabilisers are not properly set.
6. Platform Lift/Lower: Holding this switch up
causes the platform to rise. Pushing this
switch down causes the platform to lower.
7. Fuel (option): Before starting a dual-fuel
engine set the FUEL switch to gasoline (up)
or LP gas (down) depending on which you
want to use. If you select LP gas, be sure to
open the valve on top the LP gas tank.
8. Ground/Platform Selector: Must be down
for the ground control box to work. Must be
up for the platform control box to work.

1. Emergency Stop: Press the red button in at
any time, under any conditions, and the
entire machine stops - the engine turns off
and nothing moves. This switch must be out
(on) to start and run the SR from the platform
control box, pull the switch and it will pop out
(on). Press the switch in (off) if the platform
is to stay in one position for a long time. That
will turn the engine off and save fuel.
NOTE
The EMERGENCY STOP switch on the ground
control box overrides the one on the platform
control box. If the one on the ground control box
is off the SR will not start or run, it does not make
any difference whether the one on the platform
control box is on or off.

start the engine. As soon as the engine
starts, release the switch.
3. Choke (gasoline engines only): Press and

temperature (a “cold” engine).
3. Glow-Plug (diesel engines only): This is a
