Check the packaging to ensure that there are no loose parts. Check emergency stop function by depressing the emergency stop, and then pressing either the up or down button. If nothing happens when the up or down buttons are pressed, the emergency stop is functioning properly. Grasp the hand control, press the up button and run the lift arm all the way up.
