The electric lift is operated by a control switch on

tion before making any adjustments to
the machine.

frame for full travel of rockshaft before locking
rockshaft arms as described above.

engine running. Operation of electric lift off the
battery will cause premature battery failure.

a fully raised or lower position. Holding control
switch will cause protective switch to open the
circuit. Lift will function after waiting 30 seconds.
