stabilizer leg (1).
3.14.6.13 Make sure the area around the crane stabilizer legs is clear of personnel. Operate the
crane stabilizer control (3) adjacent to the stabilizers to extend the stabilizers, rotating
both crane stabilizer legs to the vertical position movement (A).
3.14.6.14 Make sure the hydraulic cylinders extend and rotate the crane stabilizer legs to a vertical
inverted position.
NOTE
Extension of the hydraulic cylinders causes the legs to rotate upwards due to the attachment
geometry of the wire stabilizer deployment strops.
