I am looking at borrowing a T350 from a friend to trim trees in my yard. We exercised the unit last week, and find that the telescope ram is not operating in or out.
All the ground controls operate with no issues except the telescope. When the extender switch is operated... the Honda engine speeds up and the hydraulic pump load the ram with pressure but the inner box tube does not exend. Neither does it retrace under the same conditions. We have a flashing triangle on the control panel.
Questions: Is there a safety lock on this machine that keeps the telescope ram from working it the automatic leveler is out of paramater.
Additionally, the remote basket control has no operational ability. Is this too associated with the flashing triangle on the ground control unit?
I downloaded the manual and have not located any answers to my questions.
All assistance is apreciated. Thanks Robert WiLLbanks

Fact of the week
The word "robotics" was coined by Russian-born American science-fiction writer Isaac Asimov who first used the word in 1942 in his short story 'Runabout'. He characterised robots as helpful servants and as "a better, cleaner race."
