OPERATING CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
RCL Override Switch (Non-CE Certified
Cranes)
The key operated RCL Override Switch (2) is located on the
front of the console below the 12 volt accessory outlet. It is

malfunction or when rigging the crane to defeat the anti-two-
block switch.
Refer to RCL Override, page 3-73 for more information.
Do not operate crane with the RCL function OFF without

these three functions prevents the overload or two-block
condition from worsening.
The RCL emergency override switch is located inside a key-
locked single-door enclosure (1, Figure 3-4) that is attached
to the outside rear of the operator's cab. The switch is a two-
