Features and devices
3.4-2 Drive speed
The drive speed depends on the MEWP configuration
(lowered travel position or elevated travel position).
When the MEWP is in the elevated travel position, the
speed is slower than when it is in the lowered travel
position. Refer to
Section 7.3.
3.4-3 Tilt switch
This device senses when the MEWP has passed a
predetermined angle in the longitudinal (front-to-back)
or lateral (side-to-side) direction. Refer to
7.4. When the tilt switch is on and the MEWP is in the
elevated travel position, it disables the drive and lift
functions and an alarm makes a sound. If the alarm
makes a sound, fully lower the platform. Level the
MEWP before you raise the platform.
