STABILISERS
Before elevating the booms, the operator must first deploy and set up each of the stabilisers using the
switches on the cage console until the base is level. The level of the machine can be checked using the
spirit level located on top of the base. To ensure that all of the stabiliser feet are correctly deployed,
check that the light on each of the stabiliser switches has turned off.
As soon as any one of the stabiliser feet makes contact with the ground and starts taking load, then the
operating speed is reduced. This is to provide safer and smoother control of the stabilisers.
Once the stabilisers are correctly set up, the operator can use all boom functions. Should a stabiliser
foot come clear of the ground while any of the booms are out of its stowed position, an audible siren
will sound as well as a flashing warning light on the cage console. Also the light on the switch that
controls that particular stabiliser will light up again indicating which one has gone light. If this happens,
return all booms to their stowed position. This will return control to the stabilisers allowing them to be
reset.
