Platform Leveling Slave Cylinder
The slave cylinder and the rotator pivot are the two
primary supports for the platform. The slave
cylinder keeps the platform level through the entire
range of boom motion. It operates in a
closed-circuit hydraulic loop with the master
cylinder. The slave cylinder is equipped with
counterbalance valves to prevent movement in the
event of a hydraulic line failure.
