position, turn clockwise or pull up on the but-
ton.
2. After mounting platform, close and latch gate.
Check that guardrails are in position and properly
assembled with fasteners properly torqued.

holes and drop-offs, and is capable of supporting
the wheel loads.

of the platform.
5. Turn Controller Emergency Stop Button clock-
wise or pull up to the

position.
6. Turn Controller Key Switch fully clockwise to start
the engine, releasing the key once the engine
starts.
Note: If the engine is cold, depress the glow plug
button for 6 seconds prior to starting to engage
the glow plugs.

DRIVE
posi-
tion and the Drive/Lift Speed Range to
HIGH
TORQUE
