Chrissa you are correct! the 5000 series pickers will not lower by simply opening the emergency lower valve, you need to step on the deadman pedal. Further if the picker is set to time out you will need to rekey the truck to get it to lower. I have questioned the wisdom of this myself!

Fact of the week
The use of "hello" as a telephone greeting is attributed to Thomas Edison. He is said to have suggested it as a simpler alternative to other greetings, such as "Do I get you?" or "Are you there?".
