Operation Considerations

To use this chapter, first decide whether you will be
starting and operating the MHP15/44HD from the
ground control box or the platform control box.
page 10 - 2
Begin either at the section entitled "Starting From
Ground Control Box - Machines with Electric
Controls", or at the section entitled "Starting From
Ground Control Box - Machines with Hydraulic
Controls" if you intend to start and run the
MHP15/44HD from the ground station.

Stabiliser Operation

NOTE: All Stabiliser Operations
The stabilisers will only function when the booms
are stowed. Once the booms are raised the
stabilisers will not operate.
NOTE: Operating the Stabilisers
Before you can operate the stabilisers you need
to start the engine. See "Starting From Ground
Control Box" on page 4 for electric controls or
page 7 for hydraulic controls.

Using the manual stabiliser valves

Ensure the Boom/Stabiliser Switch (item
ground control box) (see Figure 10.10 or 9.17) is
set to stabiliser.
Activate the stabilisers with the valve le vers (down -
wards). (see Fig ure 10.5)
NOTE:
Ensure that the front stabilisers are lowered first
to prevent damage to the jockey wheel.
