Abstract
A jump and return to grade function provides a means by activation of a switch to rapidly raise a milling machine to avoid an obstacle, then return the machine to the previous milling position. When the jump function is activated, the legs are extended at full speed, causing the machine to rise. In the return to grade function, the legs are retracted at controlled speeds until the previous milling depth is reached or the switch is released.
