ARKING THE MACHINE ON SLOPES OR ON UNEVEN GROUND
When parking the machine on a slope of on uneven ground with the outriggers closed, make
sure that the track is in the open position and block the tracks using wedges to prevent machi‑
ne movements.
6.4.11 S
TABILISING AND LEVELLING THE MACHINE
Once it has been decided where to place the machine, it can be stabilised and levelled. First
of all check that the surface can support the pressure exerted on the ground by the machine
(see technical features paragraph) and can contain the total clearance of the machine with
outriggers lowered.
Stabilizing the machine with a inclination degree higher than the one admitted may cause
the instability of the machine and damages or even the death of the operators or people
near the working area. It is absolutely compulsory to work with machine stabilized under
the inclination limit admitted by the manufacturer.
‑
Always remain at a distance from embankments or ditches equal to their depth and
respect the distances prescribed from the power lines.
‑
Do not strike objects or persons during descent of the outriggers.
STABILISATION OPERATIONAL PHASES
‑
Before moving the outriggers make sure that:
‑
All provisions stated in this chapter have been respected
‑
The ground where stabilisation is to take place is compact and can support the weight of
the machine and the maximum reaction possible on one outrigger.
NOTE: in the working phases the load on an individual outrigger can increase greatly
due to the shifting of weight especially if reach and/or rotation operations are perfor‑
med. THIS MUST ALSO BE CONSIDERED WHEN ANALYSING THE GROUND.
‑
The stabilisation area and the complete trajectory of each individual outrigger is without
obstacles.
‑
The machine is completely closed and aligned, in the stabilisation position. If it is in the
transport position, turn the outriggers until they reach the stabilisation position. If
attempts are made to activate the outriggers from the transport position, an error messa‑
ge will appear on the remote control.
