3.7 OUTRIGGER OPERATION
• Check if the transmitter operation lever operates smoothly and returns to the Neutral
position when your finger is released from it.
• The transmitter operation lever will stop due to the stopper when it is turned as far as
it will go. When it is blocked, do not attempt to push further. Otherwise, it may damage
the Transmitter and cause faults and result in a serious accident.
• Before operating outriggers, be sure to set the mode selector switch (5) to Outrigger
(F), or Outrigger (R). In the Crane mode, the crane operates unexpectedly, which is
very dangerous.
• When grounding outriggers or lifting them from the ground, reduce the engine speed.
When the engine is running at high speeds, operating outriggers may cause them to
move abruptly. This may result in a serious accident, such as overturn of the machine.
• When operating the outriggers, always configure the Crane to the stow position. In the
condition that the boom is raised or any load is lifted, it may cause a serious accident,
such as tipping of the Crane.
• When operating the outriggers, always ensure that the position pin of each outrigger
is securely inserted. If any of the positioning pins come out during operation, a
serious accident, such as overturning of the machine, may result.
1. Turn the starter switch on the machine to the “ON”
position.
2. Press the power ON/OFF switch (3) for the remote
control transmitter to supply power to the transmitter.
For details about the power-on, refer to “OPERATION
3.2 POWERING ON”.
3. Set the mode selector switch (5) for the transmitter
to Outrigger (F) or (R).
• Outrigger (F) operates outriggers (1) and (4).
• Outrigger (R) operates outriggers (2) and (3).
NOTE
When operating by radio controller, the 4 outriggers
cannot be operated at the same time. Nor can the front
and rear outriggers.
4.
Press the engine start/stop switch (4) to start the
engine.
For details about the engine start, refer to “OPERATION
3.4 STARTING/STOPPING THE ENGINE”.
NOTES
The machine is equipped with four outriggers, which are
numbered from (1) to (4) and identified by the number
labels affixed on their respective bodies. These outrigger
numbers individually correspond to those displayed in the
monitor. (See the figure on the right)
