b. Fixed Controls. All crane controls and indicators (1, Figure 1-21) are located at the crane position on the

passenger side of the truck. Controls (2) on the driver's side will also operate the outriggers. The controls are

accessible to the operator while standing on the ground. Control valves, both crane and outrigger, automatically return

to the neutral position should the operator inadvertently or intentionally release the control.

Figure 1-22. Remote Controls

c. Remote Controls. The remote control system (Figure 1-22) is designed to operate the spools of the

directional control valve. Remote control is proportionally variable. Remote control (1) is provided with an

emergency shutdown capability and designed so that when activated, all remote control crane functions cease and

truck speed is reduced to idle. The operator can operate the remote control anywhere within 35 ft (10.7 m) of the

crane base. The controller has multiple functions to match control levers on the fixed control except for the mast and

outrigger controls.
