8. EMERGENCY OPERATION

8 - 1

P/N 0082168

There are three forms of emergency operation
for the TB 60: emergency stop, emergency
power, and emergency bleed-down. Each is
covered as a separate section below.

„

EMERGENCY STOP

There are two EMERGENCY STOP switches on
the TB 60.

One is located on the platform-control box.

One is located on the ground-control panel.

The EMERGENCY STOP switch on the ground-
control panel can be used with the door open or
with the door closed as shown here.

Push either EMERGENCY STOP switch down, at
any time, and the entire machine stops, the
engine turns off, the brakes set, and nothing
moves.

Functionally, the EMERGENCY STOP switches
do the same thing as turning the MASTER switch
or the ANTI-RESTART MASTER SWITCH to
OFF. The EMERGENCY STOP switches are
designed to be easier to find and faster to use
than key switches.

To reset the EMERGENCY STOP switches, pull
or push them up. The TB 60 engine can then be
restarted in the normal way.

„

EMERGENCY POWER

Use EMERGENCY POWER when the platform
must be lowered or retracted but the TB 60
engine will not start.

C A U TIO N

Limit the use of EMERGENCY POWER to ten
minutes to keep the emergency pump and motor
from overheating. Let the pump and motor cool
at least 15 minutes before reuse.

NOTE: Boom movements will be slow and
have long lag times under EMERGENCY
POWER.
