Adjust hydraulic suspension
● Measure the suspension rod length of the first axle (X) and of the last axle
(Y) on one side of the spreader;
● Add the measures (X+Y) to obtain the total length;
● The total length must be equal to 12” [300 mm] and each rod must measure
6” [150 mm].

The hydraulic suspension is
perfectly adjusted and the
spreader inclination is adequate.

When the total length is higher
than 12” (300 mm), reduce the
volume of oil inside the cylinders.
When it is lower than 12”
(300 mm), increase the volume of
oil inside the cylinders.
