a)
the manually operated pins and hookings, the extendable rod handles, the levers of the manual
lock valves are always to be easily accessible, and their operation must entail no risk for the user
b)
the hydraulic hoses close to the operator must always be properly protected and shielded
c)
check that there are no piping or wires pending or protruding under the stabilizer, with following
risk of entangling when travelling. When necessary, collect them by means of clamps, sheaths,
etc., and fasten them properly to some fixed parts
d)
for hydraulic extendable stabilizers, make sure of the correct functioning of the side extension
system, and check in particular that the mobile parts (such as rods, piping, wires, etc.), when
moving, do not interfere of get entangled with other fixed parts of the vehicle or the stabilizer
e)
for the manually tilting stabilizers, make sure that relevant operations can be easily and safely
carried out.
6 - CHOOSING THE VERSION
According to the type of installation adopted, you have to choose the right version of additional stabilizer.
INSTALLATION ON THE CHASSIS
If the installation is to be made on the chassis, normally you choose stabilizers with standard or long
stabilizer cylinders. Only in exceptional cases you will have to choose the “
S
” versions with short cylinders.
From series ML/0 up to series 3
The stabilizers in “
K
” version from series
ML/0
up to series
3
, which are already shipped in standard
version, checking excepted, are ready for installation.
In case, when extending the rods, the cylinder or the fitting protection interfere with the body side box, it
is possible to lower the cylinder, keeping it aligned in the upper part of the cylinder sleeve, as mentioned
in § 7.3 (Pict. 14).
Series 4
For the stabilizers of series
4
it will be necessary to check if you require the “S” version with short
cylinders, or the standard version, by looking at the sizes of each type in the catalogue.
Series 5-6-7-8
For the stabilizer series
5-6-7-8
type
EXHA
or
EXPHA
, first it will be necessary to check if you have to
use the “
S
” versions with short cylinders, or the “
L
” version with long ones. Then, in case, you can
consider the
AR
versions (to be always originally ordered), which make the stabilizer cylinders move
200mm downwards.
For the models
5 EHA
–
5 ELHA
, which can be supplied both in “
S
” or “
L
” version too, the
AR
option (to
be always originally ordered) makes the stabilizer cylinders move upwards of about 60mm, and
consequently it is more suitable for installation under the chassis.
INSTALLATION UNDER THE CHASSIS
In case you wish to install the stabilizer under the chassis, you will have to make your choice in the
following way, according to the different fixing systems foreseen for stabilizer cylinders.
