Do Not Operate Unless:

You learn and practice the principles of safe machine operation contained in this operator's manual.

1Avoid hazardous situations.

2Always perform a pre-operation inspection.

3Always perform function tests prior to use.

Know and understand the function tests before going on to the next section.

4Inspect the workplace.

5Only use the machine as it was intended.

Fundamentals

The Function Tests are designed to discover any malfunctions before the machine is put into service. The operator must follow the step-by-step instructions to test all machine functions.

A malfunctioning machine must never be used. If malfunctions are discovered, the machine must be tagged and removed from service. Repairs to the machine may only be made by a qualified service technician, according to the manufacturer's specifications.

After repairs are completed, the operator must perform a pre-operation inspection and function tests again before putting the machine into service.

Function Tests

1Be sure the boom hold-down latches are unlatched.

Setup

2Position the machine below the desired work area.

3Set the parking brake.

4Insert the key and turn to ground control.

5Pull out the red Emergency Stop buttons at the ground and platform controls.

Models with optional drive system: Also pull out the red Emergency Stop button on the drive control panel.

Machines with LED diagnostic readout: LED should read ----.

Note: Machines with LED diagnostic readout perform a self-check when the power is turned on. The self-check takes about 5 seconds. Do not touch the buttons of the ground control panel until the self-check is done.

6Push and hold the auto-level button. Push and hold the extend outrigger button. The outriggers will lower and adjust to level the machine and raise the wheels slightly off the ground. Level the machine using only the outriggers. Do not use chocks, blocks or shims of any kind to level the machine.
