2.2 Accessories
The trolly is used to move and to support the machine while
on railway tracks. A trolley is essential for the intended use
of this machine.
Trolley with 3 wheels
On trolleys with 3 wheels, the machine can only be placed
on one side of the tracks. To untighten sleeper bolts on the
opposite side, the trolley needs to be turned right around.
Trolley with 4 wheels
On trolley with 4 wheels, the machine can be directed by
the guide block to any desired point on the trolley.
Socket wrench inserts
The socket wrench sizes for the most commonly used
