SECTION 3 -- FIELD OPERATION
3--92
LINKAGE STABILISERS
TELESCOPIC STABILISERS
(round section type -- where fitted)
WARNING
Never operate steerable equipment unless the
telescopic stabilisers are correctly adjusted to
prevent excessive lateral movement.
Telescopic stabilisers control the sway of the lower
links and attached equipment when in work or when
being transported.
Each stabiliser consists of a round-section tube (3),
anchored by a pin (2) to a bracket (1) bolted to the
outer ends of the rear axle housing. A smaller
diameter inner section (4), attached to a bracket on
the lower links, is a loose, sliding fit within the outer
tube. The overall length of the stabiliser is
determined by the position of a pin (5) that passes
through holes in the tube and inner section.
158
The holes in the inner section and outer tube are
drilled at different centres so a wide range of
stabiliser settings may be achieved by passing the
pin through the most suitable pair of holes.
To adjust, attach the implement to the 3-point linkage
with the locating pin removed from both stabilisers.
When the implement is satisfactorily aligned, the
locating pins should be passed through any one of
the four holes in the outer tubes that align with one
of the holes in the sliding inner section. With the pins
inserted in this manner, both stabilisers will be locked
as rigid units and the implement will be prevented
from swaying both in work or when raised to the
transport position.
If the pin is removed from the front hole (1)
Figure 159, the front end of the stabiliser (3) will be
allowed to telescope and a limited degree of sway will
be permitted. The unused pin should be re-inserted
in one of the spare holes (2) of the inner section for
safe storage.
IMPORTANT:
Always ensure locking pin is replaced
in front stabiliser hole when no implement is
attached.
IMPORTANT:
When setting the stabiliser length,
particularly if using the sway facility, ensure that
there is no possibility of the rear tyres fouling the
stabilisers or lower links.
