When the boom reaches its preset height the oil to the boom rise spool is switched to tank stopping the boom from rising. The operation of the circuit is controlled by a key operated control box. For additional safety the control box key can be removed when the circuit is armed, all other machine functions work as standard and when the boom is lowered to a safe height the circuit is reset .
