3. Set the DRIVE control switch into position and carefully drive
the machine up ascension ramp until right oscillating axle
wheel is on top of block.
4. Verify the axle oscillates to maintain contact with the ground/
ramp (all four wheels on the ground).
5. Raise machine platform above stowed position to drive cutout
height.
6. Carefully drive the machine back off the block and ramp.
7. Have an assistant check to see that the right oscillating axle
wheel that was on the block is in position on the ground. The

8. In the current position (platform raised and all four tires on flat
and level surface), carefully drive machine up the ramp block
again.
9. Have an assistant check to verify that the axle did not oscillate
and remained locked (one wheel is off of the ground).
10. Carefully drive the machine back off the block and ramp.
11. Lower the machine platform; the lockout cylinder should then
release and allow the axle to oscillate. It may be necessary to
activate DRIVE to release cylinders.
