Test the Drive Speed -
Raised or Extended Position
Proper drive function movement is essential to
safe machine operation. The drive function should
respond quickly and smoothly to operator control.
Drive performance should also be free of
hesitation, jerking and unusual noise over the
entire proportionally controlled speed range.
Select a test area that is firm, level
and free of obstructions.
1 Create start and finish lines by marking two
lines on the ground 40 feet / 12.2 m apart.
2 Turn the key switch to platform control and pull
out the red Emergency Stop button to the on
position at both the ground and platform
controls.
3 Raise the primary boom more than
5 feet / 1.5 m.
4 Choose a reference point on the machine; i.e.,
contact patch of a tire, as a visual reference for
use when crossing the start and finish lines.
5 Bring the machine to maximum drive speed
before reaching the start line. Begin timing
when your reference point on the machine
crosses the start line.
6 Continue at full speed and note the time when
your machine reference point passes over the
finish line. Refer to Section 2, Specifications.
