"it's not rocket surgery"
Operator dies while using lift, falls off, the deadman foot switch then comes into play. Happens all the time.

That sheds a light on it for me. Thank you very much Edward.
and I liked the the joke about the dead people not being able to operate the truck, although sometimes it seems like some of the operators are brain dead.
Thanks again

a serial number always is a good idea to be sure we are looking at the same controller.
01 is almost always the seat or operator presence (no dead people drive forklifts, so it can not be a "dead man foot switch" circuit, it has to be "operator in place foot switch" circuit).

Fact of the week
In May 2023, a Belgian Malinois named Wilson played a key role in the rescue of four children lost in the Amazon jungle. The young children were missing for 40 days after a plane crash that killed their mother and other adults. Wilson tracked the children's footprints, leading the military to their location.
