uration—with the boom centered over the rear (tandem
axles), push the Steering Reversal Switch (16, Figure 3-9)
one time to reverse all driving controls, including the turn
signal lever control. The Steering Reversed Indicator in the
Alerts Area (1, Figure 4-74) and Crane Status Area
(4, Figure 4-74) of the Operator Display Module (ODM)
comes on to indicate that all driving controls, including the
turn signal lever control, are reversed
.
When the boom is swung back and centered over the front
(single axle), push the Steering Reversal Switch again to set
the turn signal lever control back to its normal operation. The
Steering Reversed Indicator on the ODM goes off to indicate
that the turn signal lever control is not reversed
