3. At the ground-control panel, set the
SELECTOR SWITCH (3) to PLATFORM.

4. At the ground-control panel, set the
EMERGENCY STOP switch (4) to UP FOR
RUN.

5. At the ground-control panel, insert the key into
the MASTER switch (5) and turn it to ON (close
the ground-control door).

NOTE: Because you set the SELECTOR
SWITCH to PLATFORM, no “start-up” siren
will sound when you set the MASTER switch
to ON (unless both the EMERGENCY STOP
and ANTI-RESTART MASTER SWITCH, at
the platform-control box, are on).

6. Put on a personnel fall-restraint device.

7. Enter the platform, close the gate, and attach
the lanyard of your fall restraint to one of the
lanyard anchor points (6).

8. At the platform-control box (7) set the
following:

ENGINE SPEED.............. SLOW

DRIVE RANGE ................ LO
BOOM SPEED ................ 3/4 of way to FAST

EMERGENCY STOP ....... up

9. Check the platform-control box circuit breakers
(8) to see that none has popped out.

Starting (from the platform)

Do not attempt to start a TB 60 until the actions
in the previous part of this section (STARTING
FROM THE PLATFORM CONTROL BOX) have
been completed.

1. Turn the ANTI-RESTART MASTER SWITCH
(1) to ON and pause there a few seconds while a
siren sounds to alert others that the TB 60 is
about to start.

NOTE: If you pause 30 seconds or more an
automatic protection feature will prevent the
TB 60 from starting. If that happens, turn the
ANTI-RESTART MASTER SWITCH to OFF
and try again.
