Levelling the truck crane
• Level the truck crane with the outriggers until only lamp (1) is illuminated
in the measuring range 1°.

Danger of overturning if the supporting cylinders are operated unevenly
Extend or retract the supporting cylinders as evenly as possible.
This prevents the truck crane overturning while retracting individual
outrigger cylinders.
G
Danger of overturning when switching on the suspension
You may under no circumstances switch on the suspension as long as the
rigged truck crane is on wheels. Switching on the suspension would cause
the suspension struts to be suddenly collapsed and damaged, and the truck
crane could overturn.
