Hydraulically Extendable Outriggers; Extending The Support Cylinders - Palfinger PK 48000 Betriebsanleitung

3.2-3
When being supported the vehicle must not be lifted out of the springs in order not to overload the
support and not to reduce the braking effect.
On vehicles with air suspension ensure that the air-sprung axles are not automatically adjusted
during crane operation.
The crane support is only designed for accommodating the load
moment! Therefore never raise the vehicle with the support.
Before extending the support outriggers ensure that no persons or objects are within the movement
range of support outrigger and support cylinder. (for minimum distances see chapter 1.3).
In some crane models it is possible to switch between support operation and crane operation.
Before extracting the support outriggers switch to support operation (either mechanically or via
pushbutton).

Hydraulically extendable outriggers

Before supporting the vehicle extend the outriggers to
the full width (until the yellow marking is completely
visible). Make the movements individually so that you
can keep an eye on the danger area.

Extending the support cylinders

If your crane has manually hinged support cylinders put them in support position. Then secure them
properly as described in chapter 4.
Extend the support cylinders from the side from
which you can see the respective movement area of
the support cylinders.
If the vehicle is fitted with an additional support extend these support cylinders as described
previously. Please observe all safety instructions concerning the support.
To avoid unnecessary oil heating move the "Crane operation / Support operation" switch lever
immediately back to crane operation after the support operation.
