Abstract

Hydraulically actuated aerial lift units for trucks typically have a primary hydraulic pump system driven by the vehicle's engine or by an electric motor. An actuation system accessible to a worker suspended by the aerial lift unit allows the worker to cycle the vehicle's engine on and off and, on vehicles so equipped, activate the backup motor for towering the aerial lift unit.
