Manitou MRT 1542

I bought a used manitou MRT 1542 And I am having some technical challenges which I need some advise. When the boom is shooting out the fork automatically is tilt up without been tempered by the operator hence we cannot operate the machine with man basket. Can someone advise the cause of the malfunction. The yr of make is 1999.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
