CAUTION
When deploying bridge across the gap, observe end of
bridge to ensure it does not drive into far shore. If end of
bridge is too low to meet far shore, perform retrieval step
R7 to drive bridge back on pallet until couplings reach
upper roller block on pallet launch boom. Do not drive
bridge back all the way or bridge will uncouple. Refer to
Package to raise pallet. Failure to comply may result in
damage to equipment.
While bridge is fully extended on pallet launch boom, do
not attempt to raise or lower bridge to meet far shore by
extending or retracting pallet supporting cylinders prior
to driving bridge back on pallet using retrieval step R7.
Failing to comply may result in damage to pallet frame.
When deploying bridge over gap, ensure that bridge
launch beam does not travel past roller blocks on launch
boom or damage to equipment may result.
