OPERATING PROCEDURES GRT655/655L OPERATOR MANUAL

High Speed Glide (Optional)
Before operating the High Speed Glide System the following
conditions must be met.
1. The boom must be fully retracted.
2. The boom must be elevated approximately 15 degrees.
3. There must be no load on the hook.
After the above conditions are met, place the high speed
glide switch in the engaged position.
The High Speed Glide switch (1, Figure 4-6) is located on the
overhead console. It is a two position (ON/OFF) switch.
Position the switch to ON to allow the high speed glide
components to use the lift cylinder as a shock absorber to the
boom (instead of a rigid cylinder), which prevents the boom
from “porpoising” (bouncing sharply up and down) at high
vehicle speeds. A red LED light illuminates when the switch
is in the ON position. When the light illuminates, begin travel.
Place the switch in the OFF position when high speed glide
is not needed.
NOTE: If the system does not function properly, check the
5 amp fuse (2, Figure 4-6) located in the cab which
protects the circuit.
