The ghoul actually mentions that Maximus should've read the manual for the power armor. He hasn't used it for long and as far as we know he's about as inexperienced as one could be.

as far as we know he’s about as inexperienced as one could be.

Incorrect, he grew up around the power armor, he asked Titus in the vertiberd if he had modified his power armor for mobility. He clearly knew a lot about the power armor, you'd think he'd have read the user manual many times since he was a child. To assume Maximus' character only knows as much as anyone else about power armor is seriously hard to believe.

I took that as like a kid who grew up reading car magazines, but if you threw them behind the wheel would have no real idea what they are doing. I'm thinking of it kind of like fallout 3 where it won't even let you wear the armor until you find someone willing to give you "power armor training". Something something "if you don't know what you're doing, the armor will snap your bones".

Also, as someone else said, Maximus is clearly a low-int build, so even if he's read it, he didn't retain all of it, lol.

He might've grown up around power armors, but I doubt he had ever worn one before.
