Air Line

The optional air line may be used to conduct air for tool
operation at the platform.
• The input connector is at the rear of the turntable and
the output connector is at the platform on the rotator
guard.
• The maximum working pressure of the line is 250 psi
(1,723 kPa).
The air line may be used to conduct fluids such as water
or antifreeze. Contact Snorkel for compatibility information
before using the air line to conduct other fluids.
AB60J – 0181972
Caution
Fluid in the air line may damage some air tools or
freeze and damage the line. Drain and blow out the
air line after using it to conduct fluids.
Use the following procedure to drain the air line.
1. Close the input connector on the turntable.
2. Open the output connector at the platform.
3. Raise the riser and main booms slightly above hori-
zontal.
4. Open the input connector on the turntable.
5. Allow the fluid to drain from the line.
6. Lower the boom and close both connections.

Driving Lights

The optional driving lights are for use in dimly lit areas
and are not intended for driving on public roadways. The
machine may have two lights at the front of the turntable
or four lights, two at the front and two at the rear of the
turntable.
The lights are operational when the machine is set up for
operation from the upper controls and the light switch is
turned on.
If the engine is running, the idle speed increases when
the driving lights are turned on.
Note
Working with the driving or platform work lights on, while
the engine is off, can discharge the batteries enough that
the engine will not start or the emergency power system
will not operate. If the engine cannot be left running while
the lights are on, start and run the engine for at least 15
minutes each hour.

Platform Work Lights

The optional platform work lights are located on the top rail
of the platform next to the upper controls (refer to Figure
8.10). The direction a light points can be adjusted by using
two ½" wrenches to loosen the clamp below the light.
