CABRA OWNER’S MANUAL
5
Never place objects on the base of the vehicle below the cab as this will diminish the
safety gap.
IF ANYONE NEEDS TO BE UNDER THE CAB FOR MAINTENANCE OR ANY OTHER REASON, THE
CAB SHOULD BE RAISED UP HIGH ENOUGH TO DEPLOY THE 4 SAFETY TUBE LOCKING PINS
AND THE CAB SHOULD BE LOWERED DOWN TO REST ON THE PINS.
This is accomplished
using the remote cab raising/lowering switch located inside the charge door. The power
does not have to be on to operate this switch.
Before each use of the Cabra, always make sure the hydraulic hose going into the
hydraulic rams is free to move and that there is no chafing. There is a safety hose burst
valve installed on the rams so that if the hydraulic hose breaks the valve closes and the
cab will not come down. The only way to get the cab to come down in that event is to
restore hydraulic pressure to the hydraulic rams.
Never allow anyone to get under the cab without the tube locking pins
deployed.
Even though there are safety features built in, the only thing keeping
the cab from crashing down is the hydraulic rams. It is possible for them to
crack or have a seal blow out.
When lowering the cab from the driver
’s seat always c
heck the camera view
on the display to make sure there are no obstructions below. When the cab is
lowering, the image automatically comes up on the display, however, If you are
parked and suspect that people or animals might be below, the camera image
can be brought up by pushing the appropriate button on the display before
lowering.
