Published 02-21-2019, Control # 611-05
Each telescopic section is equipped with two section locking
pins (7) which are extended by spring force.
The section locking pins (7) are pushed into the cutouts (4) of
the telescopic section at the locking points – the telescopic
section is locked.
The telescoping cylinder is attached to the base section (9)
with the piston rod (8). The telescoping cylinder has two
cylinder locking pins (5) at the bottom and a mechanism at
the top (10).
When the telescoping cylinder is positioned at a locking
point:
The locking pins (5) can be extended into the cutouts (6) –
the telescoping cylinder is locked.
The mechanism (10) engages into the locking pins (7) and
can retract them – the telescopic section is unlocked.
Telescoping process
This state should be the starting point for a telescoping
process. A telescoping processes consist of 4 steps:
1. Unlocking the telescoping cylinder
The locking pins (5, Figure 4-110) retract – the telescoping
cylinder is unlocked.
2. Moving and locking the telescoping cylinder
The telescoping cylinder moves into the section to be
telescoped, e.g. telescopic section III (3, Figure 4-111).
The cylinder locking pins (5) extend – the telescoping
cylinder is locked.
