Platform Leveling Slave Cylinder
The slave cylinder and the rotator pivot are thetwo
primary supports for the platform. The slave
cylinder keeps the platform level through the entire
range of boom motion. It operates in a closed-circuit
hydraulic loop with the master cylinder. The slave
cylinder is equipped with counterbalance valves to
prevent movement in the event of a hydraulic line
failure.
How to Remove the Platform
Leveling Slave Cylinder
Note: Before cylinder removal is considered, bleed
the slave cylinder to be sure there is no air in the
closed loop.
Note: When removing a hose assembly or fitting,
the O-ring (if equipped) on the fitting and/or hose
end must be replaced. All connections must be
torqued to specification during installation. Refer to
Specifications, Hydraulic Hose and Fitting Torque
Specifications.
1 Extend the boom until the slave cylinder
barrel-end pivot pin is accessible.
2 Raise the boom slightly and place blocks
under the platform for support.
3 Lower the boom until the platform is resting on
the blocks just enough to support the platform.
Note: Do not rest the entire weight of the boom on
the blocks.
