Operation

This section describes the operation of the system. Be sure to read and understand the entire
operation procedure and the Safety Summary Section 1 before beginning operation.
6.1

Pre-Operation Check

Before operating the system:
1. Ensure that there are no overhead obstructions, and that there are no power lines within 20
feet (6 meters) of the mast.
2. Visually inspect the system for damage. If damage is apparent, do not use the mast and have
it serviced prior to use.
3. Check for and remove any objects which might obstruct motion of the mast, cause binding or
hinder mast function.
6.2

Remote Control Functions

Using the Remote Control, the operator can perform an emergency stop, move the mast up and
down, tilt the lights up and down, pan the lights right and left, turn the lights on and off, and turn
the optional strobe light on and off. The following are the Remote Control buttons:

Quick Operation Summary

Following is a quick summary of the operation of the system. Detailed steps follow the quick sum-
mary.
If an emergency stop (E-Stop) is required at any time, press the "E-Stop" button. This will discon-
nect the unit from power and cause all air to be exhausted from the mast. The mast will fully
lower (if it was raised) regardless of the orientation of the RCP, but not tilt.
1. Ensure the vehicle is stationary and the parking brake is engaged.
2. Ensure there are no obstructions in the mast operating space.
3. If the "E-Stop" was activated, it must be reset by turning to enable the system to power-up.
Do not reset the "E-Stop" until the cause of the event is corrected. Turn the red "E-Stop" but-
ton if needed. Then press "NFPA Start" to power-up the mast.
