ENGINE OPERATION

Power Selector Switch

The power selector switch functions to direct electrical power to
the desired control station. With the switch in the ground posi-
tion, power is supplied to the emergency stop switch at the
ground control station. When the switch is in the platform posi-
tion, power is supplied to the emergency stop switch at the plat-
form control station. The switch should be in the off position
when parking the machine overnight.

Emergency Stop Switch

This switch, when in the on (out) position, provides electrical
power to the ground controls or platform controls, as applicable.
In addition, the switch can be used to turn off power (push the
switch IN) to the function controls in the event of an emergency.
