OUTRIGGER STOWING
WARNING!
• Do not let people approach toward the
machine when stowing the outriggers.
• Staying around the machine may result in
serious accidents such as getting caught
between an outrigger and the main unit of
the machine.
• Verify that there is nothing under the rubber
tracks when stowing the outriggers.
• If there is any object under the rubber tracks,
the machine may overturn and serious
accidents may occur when stowing the
outriggers.
• Stop the engine for operation except for
extending/setting the outrigger cylinders.
• The third person touching an outrigger may
result in sudden movement of the outrigger
cylinder, which may lead to serious
accidents.
• When the position pin is removed, the
outrigger loses the support and rotates.
Always hold the outrigger with one hand
when removing the position pin.
• Do not put your hands or fingers around the
gaps of movable areas when stowing the
outriggers.
Your hands or fingers may get caught, and it
may lead to serious accidents.
• Insert the position pin to the end when
stowing the outriggers.
• When lowering the raised machine, operate
the eight outrigger switches so that the four
outriggers are lowered little by little.
Suddenly retracting two outriggers just on
the right side or left side will cause
instability in the machine and it can overturn
the machine.
• Do not perform the outrigger extending
operation after they are set on the ground.
Doing so applies unreasonable force on the
outriggers, resulting in the outrigger
breakage.
• Always set the travelling lock lever to the
"LOCK" position when operating the
outriggers.
CAUTION:
• Always keep the boom at the "lowest
position and slew and stow position" when
operating the outriggers. The outriggers
cannot be operated if the boom is not
stowed completely. (Verify that the boom
stowing lamp (green) on the outrigger
display is ON.)
• Operate the work selector switch on the
outrigger operation panel to the "Outrigger"
position.
