CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTS

FRAME SWAY CONTROL

WARNING

Always ensure that the machine level indicator (B) is at zero (0) degrees before raising the boom. Raising the boom with an unlevel machine may cause the machine to overturn, resulting

in injury or death.

WARNING

Use the frame sway control to level the machine only when the boom angle indicator is at 0 degrees or less. Using the frame sway control when the angle indicator is more than 0 degrees

may cause the machine to overturn, resulting in injury or death.

The frame sway control (A) is located on the forward side of

the right arm rest. The frame sway control is used in conjunction with the machine level indicator (B) located in the center of the cross support that the interior rear view mirror is mounted on. The sway control switch is either toggled to the left or right depending on the particular requirement.
