Operation
Working alongside trenches
Danger of damaging piston rod A of the boom ram when working alongside trenches,
slopes etc. and operating the stabilizer blade and the boom incorrectly.
☞ Always use stabilizer blade B for stabilization during excavation work.
☞ Ensure that stabilizer blade B never touches piston rod A.
☞ If you perform deep excavations with stabilizer blade B at the front, ensure
that piston rod A does not touch or rest on stabilizer blade B (Fig. 249).
Stabilizer blade at rear
Improper or careless operation of machine when working alongside trenches,
slopes, etc., with the stabilizer blade B at the rear –
Danger of falling.
☞ Use this work position (Fig. 250) only in an extreme emergency since the
machine can tip over forward into the trench.
☞ We recommend using the first work position (Fig. 249) described above
and to ensure that piston rod A does not touch stabilizer blade B under any
circumstances.
