retiring one of the stabilizers and checking if this corresponds to the value shown in
chapter 1.
the integrity of the extension
boom chains and the connections (belleville washers,

to about 10 to 15 mm (Fig 5.3a)
Check the level of the endothermal engine fumes and its noise level.
Check the correct manual pump functioning, it is enough to pump some seconds

movement must be correct.
Grease all the articulations arms, cylinders, stabilizers and the cage. Before applying
the greasing pump, clean the greasers and then keep on greasing until the old grease
comes out.
Execute all the checks as shown in the previous paragraph
the right operation of the block valve on the boom lifting cylinder in this way:
1. fi ft up the boom till about 10°
2. turn off the engin and act on the boom lifting level on the hydraulic distri
butor moving the lifting and the lowering maneuver alternately; verify that the boom
