With Boom Elevated
Travel with boom elevated is restricted to firm
level surfaces only.
When driving elevated, the machine will travel at
creep speed (1 foot [.30 m] per second).
Steering
1. While engaging the hand interlock, push the
steering switch (located on top of the control
handle) to the left to turn left, and right to turn
right.
Note: Steering is not self centering. Wheels
must be returned to the straight ahead position
by operating the steering switch.
POSITIONING THE PLATFORM
Positioning the platform as close as possible to the
work area requires some planning. First, you must
survey the work site to find a suitable place to park
the machine. This must be a firm level area as close
as possible to the work area. Take into consider-
ation all obstructions on the ground and overhead
and avoid them.
Always, before operating any function, check the
area around and overhead for any obstructions or
electrical conductors.
NEVER exit the platform while the boom is
elevated. Keep both feet firmly on platform
floor at all times. Do not use planks, ladders,
or any other device on the platform for
achieving additional height or reach.
Multifunction Controls
The UpRight SB60 employs the use of multifunction
controls. This means that any two functions can
operate at full speed simultaneously.
The turret may be rotated while driving if necessary
to make turns in tight areas. All other boom func-
tions will not operate while driving.
Lower Control Operation
All boom functions will operate at fixed speed.
1. Turn chassis keyswitch to chassis controls.
2. With engine running, operate boom control
switches to position the platform.
SB60 Work Platform
Leveling the Platform
DO NOT operate the machine if the
platform does not maintain level when
elevated.
Note: Platform leveling can be performed only
with the boom stowed and should be done only
to calibrate the automatic leveling system.
While depressing the foot switch, move the
platform level control switch forward to swing
the platform upward, rearward to swing the
platform downward. Release the switch to stop
leveling. Leveling can be performed only when
boom is stowed and retracted.
Rotating the Turret
While depressing the foot switch, move the
boom rotation joystick to the right to rotate right,
left to rotate left. Release the switch to stop
rotation. The turret rotation will function at a
speed proportional to the stroke of the joystick.
Make sure the area around the boom is clear of
all obstructions before rotating the turret.
While depressing the foot switch, move the
joystick forward to elevate the boom, rearward to
lower the boom. Release the control lever to stop
elevating / lowering. The boom elevate will function
at a speed proportional to the stroke of the joy-
stick.
Extending the Boom
While depressing the foot switch, move the
boom extension control joystick rearward to
extend the boom, forward to retract the boom.
Release the control lever to stop extending /
retracting. The boom extension will function at a
speed, proportional to the stroke of the joystick.
