Wait, one machine will still travel full speed with the platform at height? That's the broken machine, they are supposed to go into tortoise mode when raised, they are extremely unstable if not. Imagine having a loaded platform at full height and hitting a small bump while traveling... Not good.

I am not sure about the European truck but on the US truck there is a height sensor. if this is activated too early the truck will go into speed limit mode. This should occur above a set height when adjustment is correct.
