EMERGENCY OPERATION

In the event of powered function failure, the elevating
assembly may be lowered manually by the following
procedure.
NEVER climb down the elevating assembly. If
controls do not respond, ask someone on the
ground to lower the boom manually.
Lowering Elevating Assembly
1. Open the cover on the hydraulic module (opposite side
of the turret from the chassis control panel).
2. Remove the wire loop retainer from the hand pump
lever, and extend the handle upward to gain
leverage.
3. Operate the manual override (knurled knob) on the
appropriate valve (see fig. 4). Push in to lower /
extend, pull out to raise / retract as required.
4. While holding the appropriate valve in position, pump
the handle in and out until that section of the elevat-
ing assembly is lowered / retracted.
5. Repeat as necessary operating each valve until the
elevating assembly is fully lowered.
Note: Use of the hand pump causes a diverter valve
to open disabling normal controls. The valve will
remain open until pressure is bled off. After operat-
ing any function with the hand pump, cycle the jib
valve in and out 6 times to bleed off pressure.
