OUTRIGGER STOWING
WARNING! Tip Hazard. Verify that there is
nothing under the rubber tracks before
stowing the outriggers. Remove any objects
under the rubber tracks, then carefully move
the outriggers to the STOW position.
WARNING! Entanglement Hazard. Do not
allow people near the machine when stowing
the outriggers. People must remain at a safe
distance from the machine when stowing the
outriggers.
WARNING! Crush Hazard. Do not place your
hands, fingers or feet around gaps of
movable machine components when
stowing the outriggers. Be aware of movable
machine components and keep your hands,
fingers and feet away from the components.
This example describes the stowing procedure
for one outrigger. Set the others in the same
manner.
Procedures after Starting the
Machine
The outriggers cannot be operated if the boom is
not stowed completely.
1. Start the machine.
Operate the motor at low speed after
starting.
2. Push in the travel lever while unlocking the
lever to enable operation of the outriggers.

3. Select outrigger mode on the Home screen.
Fig. 4-131
4. Check the outrigger number on the monitor
against the actual outrigger number to
determine the outrigger used.
5. Push the Outrigger Stowage Switch, one at
a time or two simultaneously.
When, with the outrigger retracting, the
machine starts to lower, take your hand off
the Outrigger Stowage Switch for the time
being.
Operate the remaining switches in the same
manner so that four outriggers are lowered
to equal height. Repeat this operation to
lower the machine gradually, until the
rubber tracks are totally grounded.

6. After both tracks are completely grounded,
continue to push the Outrigger Stowage
Switch. When the outrigger cylinder has
retracted completely and the outrigger has
reached its upper limit, take your hand off
the Outrigger Stowage Switch.
