DESCRIPTION

This machine is a mobile elevating work platform used to posi-
tion personnel, along with their necessary tools and materials at
work locations.
The primary operator control console is in the platform. From this
control console, the operator can drive and steer the machine in
both forward and reverse directions. The operator can raise or
lower the boom or swing the boom to the left or right. The
machine can be driven on a smooth, firm surface within the limits
of the maximum operating slope from an elevated platform posi-
tion. Refer to the subsection Steering and Traveling of this man-
ual for specific requirements. The machine has a Ground Control
Station that can override the Platform Control Station. Ground
controls operate all functions except Drive and Steer. Except for
performing inspections and the Function Check, the ground con-
trols are to be used in an emergency to lower the platform to the
ground should the operator in the platform be unable to do so.
