Lifting Arm

Figure 10-8      Gripper cylinder and adjustment rod

Adjusting Adjustment Rod

Both blades of the gripper should move symmetrically in order for the gripper to close equally. A 
system of cylinder and adjustment rod (see  Figure 10-8) allows for the proper operation of the 
gripper. The cylinder is used to control one side of the gripper while the adjustment rod is used to 
control the other side. Since the cylinder and the adjustment rod have the same length, both sides of 
the gripper should move symmetrically. While the gripper cylinder does not need to be adjusted, the 
adjustment rod may need some adjustment.

N

OTE

:

The adjustment rod has been pre-adjusted at the factory.

To adjust the adjustment rod:

1.

Apply all safety measures to ensure safety around the vehicle at all times and make sure to have 
enough room to fully operate the arm and gripper.

2.

Make sure that the parking brake is applied.

3.

Slide out the arm about half way (gripper in the lower position and blades fully open).

4.

Remove the pin from the left-hand side end of the adjustment rod (see Figure 10-9).

5.

Move the adjustment rod towards you.

6.

Loose the locknut.

7.

Turn the swivel eye clockwise or counterclockwise to adjust rod length.

8.

When the correct length is achieved, tighten the locknut.

9.

Replace the adjustment rod into position.

10.

Put back the pin.

11.

Test the operation.

Repeat the procedure if required.
