TILTBACK OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Lowering the Tilt-back
Assembly
1 Be sure the area behind the machine and under
the tilt-back frame is clear of personnel and
obstructions.
2 Fully lower the platform.
3 Remove the outriggers from the base and place
them in the storage sockets.
The tilt-back
frame is spring
loaded and will
immediately fall
outward when the
retaining pin is
removed.
Maintain a firm
grasp on the tilt-
back frame and
remove the
retaining pin.
4 Lower the tilt-back frame and guide the tilt-back
strut into the strut socket.
5 Insert the retaining pin into the strut socket.
Tilting Back the Machine
1 Slide out the T-
handle until the lock
pin snaps into
place.
2 Lift the machine
with the T-handle to
mid-tilt position—
casters on the tilt-back frame are in contact with
the floor, and the machine is supported by the
extended tilt-back strut. Use the appropriate
number of people and proper lifting techniques.
3 Continue lifting until the telescoping tilt-back
strut is completely compressed.
4 Return the sliding T-handle to the stowed
position.
