Ground Control Panels

Platform Control Panel

At the Ground Controls

1Insert the key and turn to ground control.

2Pull out the red Emergency Stop buttons at the ground and platform controls.

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.

3Models with manual outriggers: Select an outrigger. Maintain a firm grasp on the outrigger. Pull the outrigger release handle and lower the outrigger. Be sure the outrigger lock pin is locked. Repeat the procedure for each of the remaining outriggers.

Adjust the outriggers to level the machine and raise the wheels slightly off the ground. Level the machine using only the leveling jacks.

Models with hydraulic outriggers: Push 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.

4Check the interlock display lights at the ground controls and on the turntable. Confirm that all four lights are on.

Note: If any interlock display light is flashing, the machine is not level. Adjust the leveling jacks or use the individual outrigger buttons to level the machine.

Test Emergency Stop

5Push in the ground red Emergency Stop button to the off position.

Result: The power will shut off and all ground and platform control functions should not operate.

6Pull out the red Emergency Stop button to the on position.

Test Outrigger Interlock

7Unscrew one leveling jack or use the leveling buttons to raise one outrigger until the corresponding interlock display light turns off.

Result: Boom functions should not operate.

8Return the leveling jack to the previous setting or use the leveling buttons to lower the outrigger.

9Repeat the procedure for each outrigger.
