5. Enter the platform (5) and close the gate
(6).
6. Turn the Emergency Stop switch (7)
clockwise and it will pop out (on).
7. If the engine is at ambient temperature,
momentarily press the GLOW-PLUG
switch (8). This action will automatically
turn the glow-plugs, in the engine, on for
10 seconds. A light (9) will automatically
come on to indicate that the glow-plugs
are on.
8. When the light (9) goes out, press and
hold the START switch (10) until the
engine starts or for 20 seconds,
whichever comes first. When the engine
starts, release the START switch (10).
If the engine does not start in 20 seconds,
release the START switch (10) then wait 60
seconds before trying to start the engine again
with the GLOW-PLUG (8) and START
switches (10).
❑ Driving
1. The engine should be running. If not, start
it from the platform control box as
described above.
2. Set the Speed switch (1) to turtle (slow) if
you are going to be driving close to other
objects or need to move the SRT very
slowly for other reasons.
Setting the SPEED to rabbit doubles the travel
speed. (See the “Specifications” chapter 1 for
speeds of different models.)
3. Set the Lift/Drive Selector switch (2) to
drive (right).
The SRT is about to move. If you have to make
an emergency stop, release the Joystick
Controller (3) and sharply strike the
Emergency Stop switch (4) straight in.
To make a normal stop, slowly move the
Joystick Controller (3) to its “centered”
neutral position then release it.
4. Squeeze and hold the Safety Control (5)
against the Joystick Controller (3).
5. Push the Joystick Controller (3) slowly
forward or pull it slowly backward,
depending on which way you want to go.
The further you move the joystick the
faster the SRT moves.
6. To make a right or left turn, press and
hold the Steering rocker-switch (6) on top
of the Joystick Controller (3).
