This story includes the following test:
- Travel Test
- Move the machine to a smooth, horizontal location that is away from operating machines and away from personnel.
- Permit only one operator on the machine. Keep all other personnel away from the machine or in the operator sight.
- Place the machine in the PARK position.
- Engage the parking brake.
- Put the machine in travel mode.
Note: An audible alarm should sound when put into travel mode.
- With all travel interlocks released, move the machine in forward and reverse directions.
- Slowly engage the joysticks.
Note: The machine should move slowly in proportion to the joystick output.
Note: The machine should travel straight.
- Fully stroke the joysticks in both directions.
Note: A slight pull to the left (non-cab) side may be noticed as the machine jumps. Travel should be straight thereafter.
- Carefully let off the joystick to observe the responsiveness of the pump controls. The pumps should spike naturally, but also drain down smoothly and responsively.
