chart located on the carrier cab door.

system pressure. Ensure the crane is on a flat level
surface. Ensure the top surface of each saddle
assembly is parallel with the bottom surface of the
carrier frame by measuring the distance at the front and
rear of the saddle assemblies. If necessary, adjust the
height control valves to raise or lower the saddle
assemblies into a parallel position.
