NOTE: It may be necessary to jog the outrigger extension/
retraction switch slightly to ensure proper pin
engagement.
With the outriggers fully retracted, disengage the locking
stirrup from its stowed position. Slowly extend the outriggers
to the partial extend position, until the outer extension beam
and inner extension beam holes align. Partial extend
positions can be located at 57 or 79 percent position. Extend
beam until the locking pin holes aligns with the holes on the
extension beam, refer to Figure 4-29. Remove locking pin
from stowage bracket located next to the frame of the
outrigger box. Insert locking pin into Partial/Mid Extension
locking holes and rotate pin until retention pin aligns with slot
in locking hole of outrigger beam. Swing handle on the lock
pin until lug is pointing downward in order to retain pin in a
secured position. If the pin will not slip into the hole freely,
slowly extend or retract the outrigger beam, allowing the
locking pin to engage into the holes.

ACTIVATE and position the outrigger extension/
