Hydraulic Lockout Control (14)
Deactivation of the hydraulic controls does not prevent the blade, boom swing, or auxiliary circuit functions from moving under gravity or other external forces. Gravity or other external forces can move the blade, boom swing, or auxiliary circuit functions suddenly if a hydraulic control lever is moved. Personal injury or death may occur from sudden machine movement. |
Locked - Place the hydraulic lockout control in the RAISED position to deactivate the hydraulic controls. |
Make sure that the hydraulic lockout control is in the RAISED position before you exit the machine.
Note: Always put the left hydraulic lockout control in the RAISED position before starting the engine. The engine start switch will not function if the left hydraulic control is in the LOWERED position.
Unlocked - Place the hydraulic lockout control in the LOWERED position. When the hydraulic lockout control is in the LOWERED position, the hydraulic controls are operable. |
Note: The hydraulic controls will only function if the joystick levers are centered when the implements are UNLOCKED. If the joystick levers are not centered when the hydraulic controls are switched from LOCKED to UNLOCKED, the hydraulic circuit associated with the lever out of center will be disabled until the joystick lever is centered.
