6.11.1  Adjusting the tilt angle 

Do not adjust the cylinders before they are fitted 

to the platform. The tilting cylinders are preset 

from the factory.

NOTE.

 

 

1.  Close the platform to the body, see Image 46.

2.  Unscrew the locking screws (pos. 1, 2, 3, see Im-

age 47).

3.  Turn the nut (pos. 4, see Image 47) to adjust 

cylinder length and position on the platform. Use 

ZEPRO tool part no. 59693 (60 mm). Always 

adjust both cylinders.

4.  Unscrew the lock screws (pos. 5, 6, 7, see Image 

48). Zepro recommends securing the screws with 

Loctite 243 or equivalent. 

 

Must always be adjusted with full hydraulic pres-

sure in the tilting cylinders.

NOTE.

 

 

 

Check the dimension, see. Maximum length 

must not exceed 33 mm, see Image 49. 

 

The max. length of both cylinders must be adjust-

ed equally to avoid unwanted bending forces.

 

WARNING!
