How to Remove an Outrigger
Cylinder (if equipped)
Note: When removing a hose assembly or fitting,
the O-ring on the fitting and/or hose must be
replaced and then torqued to specification during
installation. Refer to Section 2,
Hydraulic Hose and
Fitting Torque Specifications
1 Lower the outrigger cylinder to be removed until
the foot pad is resting on the ground. Do not
apply any downward pressure.
2 Remove the outrigger limit switch. Do not
disconnect the wiring.
3 Remove the mounting fasteners from the
outrigger cover. Remove the cover.
4 Tag and disconnect the wiring from the
outrigger cylinder solenoid valve.
5 Tag, disconnect and plug the hydraulic hoses
from the outrigger cylinder. Cap the fittings on
the cylinder.
Bodily injury hazard. Spraying
hydraulic oil can penetrate and
burn skin. Loosen hydraulic
connections very slowly to
allow the oil pressure to
dissipate gradually. Do not
allow oil to squirt or spray.
6 Attach a lifting strap from an overhead crane to
the barrel end of the outrigger cylinder for
support. Do not apply any lifting pressure.
7 Remove the outrigger mounting fasteners. Slide
the outrigger cylinder away from the machine.
Crushing hazard. The outrigger
cylinder may become unbalanced
and fall if not properly supported
when removed from the machine.
Note: If the outrigger cylinder is being replaced,
remove the shoulder pin from the barrel end of the
outrigger cylinder and install it onto the new
cylinder.
