RAISING THE SCREEN CRADLE WITH JACKSCREWS
Make sure that no one is near the jackscrew or screen cradle during operation.
From the jackscrew console, raise the cradle approximately two-thirds of its full travel by turning
the SCREEN CRADLE selector switch to the RAISE position.
Check the screens to make sure that they are seated and properly positioned in the cradle.
Continue raising the cradle by tuning the selector switch and holding it until the screw-jack stops.
When you REVERSE the jackscrew operating direction, always ALLOW THE JACKSCREW MOTOR
TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. Release the control switch and allow a minimum of 5 seconds
before switching to the opposite operating position. If you don't allow this pause, the JACKSCREW AND
OTHER COMPONENTS MAY BE SEVERELY DAMAGED.
