18 - STABILIZERS’ USER MANUAL
The following pages include the instructions for use for MAXISTAB supplementary outriggers.
The installer must take care of enclosing such pages (in case even photocopying them) in the user
manual he has to provide to the end user, as foreseen in the Machine Directive.
18.1 Lateral extensions locking systems
18.1.1 Manually operated lateral extensions (Pict. 32 A)
These beams are fitted with two separate locking devices, one manually operated (
1
) and a second
(
2
) on the other side of the main beam, automatically deploying and ready to be equipped with a
microswitches kit that warns the driver when both lateral extensions are not properly locked for
travelling on road (see sect. 14). For extending laterally the beam, first disengage the manual lock (
1
)
rotating it 180 degrees upward. Pull out the extension acting on the relevant handle (
3
) at the same
time for the first 20 cm of running, keeping manually lifted the automatic latch so that its locking pin
(
4
) can be overrun. When done, turn again the manual lock (
1
) of 180 degrees, in this way its spring
operated pin will engage and lock the lateral extension when fully extended in working position,
marked by a vertical yellow stripe on the lateral extension.
For retracting the extensions in travelling position: disengage the manual lock turning it 180 deg
upwards, push the extension inside for a 20 – 30 cm acting on the handle and then turn the lock of
180 deg again, so it will lock the extension in travelling position automatically when fully retracted.
Push completely the extension until it stops, both devices (
1
and
2
) will engage and secure
automatically.
18.1.2 Hydraulically operated lateral extensions (Pict. 32 B)
The hydraulic extendable stabilizers are fitted with a single automatically inserting device (
5
). In this
case, in order to allow the hydraulic extension of the rod, you have to pull the lever (
6
) of the device
upwards, and keep it lifted by means of its proper retainer (
7
), which has to lean on the pin (
8
) of the rod
itself. For retracting, simply operate on the controls, the locking device will engage automatically when
fully retracted.
If the safety latch device looks damaged or not properly working, bring the truck to the workshop for
checking correct setting of pressures and choice of controls according to sect. 12.3, 12.6, 12.7
