• check that the handling attachment and its components are in good condition
• keep to the limits of the machine’s load chart and/or the attachment’s nominal capacity. The operational
limits of the machine + attachment are determined by the lowest limit between that of the machine and
that of the attachment
• whatever method used, it is forbidden to carry out lifting operations that exceed the capacity of the
machine + attachment
• before handling a load make sure:

• that the load itself is not likely to move
• that the pallet, the case, etc. are in good condition and are able to support the load to be handled
• that there are no obstacles in the turning area that could make the operation dangerous
• where overhead power lines are present in the machine’s turning area, ensure there is sufficient
distance between the nearest of these lines and any part of the machine

1.1- Characteristics:
1.1.1- General characteristics of the machine:
Monocoque frame in mechanically welded steel accommodating:
1.1.1.1- on the left, the driving cab which comprises:
• the driver’s seat

• the controls and indicators
1.1.1.2- on the right, the engine compartment which contains:
• the diesel engine and its peripheral circuits

• the hydraulic oil tank
1.1.1.3- in the centre, the telescopic boom:
• made up of 3 elements which slide into each other driven by a jack and synchronisation chains (a
double chain for extending and a single chain for retraction)
• fitted at the end with a bracket to which the machine’s attachments can be fixed
1.1.2- Stabilisers and cant and side offset correction (CDDL):
The front axle (3) and the two stabilisers (4) are fixed to a structure which is independent (2) of the frame (1). This
structure is connected to the frame by two rods (5), the unit forms a deformable parallelogram. A jack (6) controls
the relative movement between these elements and enables correction of the boom’s side cant in addition to the
tyres and stabilisers. On each side of the central position, this correction is 4° between bearings. See fig. 93704.

This device will be used to return the boom to a vertical plane if the ground is not horizontal.
The machine is fitted with a pendulum which permanently shows the CDDL management system the direction of
the absolute vertical in the transverse direction. In relation to this information, the CDDL management system will
prohibit or limit certain operations of the machine. In what follows, it is appropriate to call:
• A the angle between the boom and the frame, in the longitudinal direction (see fig. 93705)
• B the angle between the boom and the absolute vertical (VA), in the transverse direction (see fig.
93706)
1.1.2.1- when the boom is raised by an angle A of less than 50°, the whole stroke of each stabiliser or CDDL is
available. We recommend you do not exceed an angle B = 4°, in particular when angle A is almost 50°
1.1.2.2- the boom’s lifting movement boom will be made inoperative when the boom reaches an angle A = 50°and
when it is not in the zone where angle B is between 2° to the right and 2° to the left. In order to raise the boom
by angle A over 50°, it will have to be returned to the zone where angle B is between 2° to the right and 2° to the
left. This manoeuvre can be carried out either with the CDDL, or with the stabilisers.
1.1.2.3- when the boom is raised by angle A higher than 50° and is therefore in the zone where angle B is between
2° to the right and 2° to the left, the movements of the CDDL and the stabilisers will be limited by the
management system so that the boom remains in the zone where angle B is between 2° to the right and 2° to
the left. For example, if angle B reaches 2° to the left, the following movements:
• CDDL to the left, lowering of the right stabiliser and raising of the left stabiliser will be made inoperative
by the management system when the angle of the boom reaches an angle B = 2° to the left
• CDDL to the right, lowering of the left stabiliser and raising of the right stabiliser will remain operational
as they tend to return the boom towards the absolute vertical

1.1.2.4- when the boom is raised by an angle A higher than 50° and is therefore in the zone where angle B is
between 2° to the right and 2° to the left, and an event completely independent of the CDDL controls or
stabilisers (sinking of the ground, etc) has suddenly inclined the boom by an angle B higher than 2° to the right
or to the left, then only the movements of the CDDL or stabilisers which tend to return the boom to the zone
where angle B is between 2° to the right and 2° to the left remain operational whereas the others are made
inoperative.
1.1.3- Indicator of longitudinal stability (ISL): (see fig. 93707)
this device informs the driver of the state of longitudinal stability towards the front of the machine. This information
is conveyed by a green indicator, an amber indicator and a red indicator located on the central console and also by
a alarm. I.e. C = load which causes the machine to tilt forwards:
• the green indicator light stays on whenever the load is less than 67% of load C which tends to cause
the machine to tilt forwards. Otherwise it is off.
• the amber indicator light comes on when the handled load is greater than or equal to 67% of load C
which tends to cause the machine to tilt forwards.
• the red indicator light comes on when the handled load is greater than or equal to 81% of load C which
tends to cause the machine to tilt forwards.
• the alarm sounds when the handled load is greater than or equal to 77% of load C which tends to cause
the machine to tilt forwards.
1.1.4- Stopping aggravating movements (AMA):
This device is active if angle A is equal to or greater than 25° and inactive if angle A is less than 25°. When the
handled load reaches 85% of load C which tends to cause the machine to tilt forwards (see fig. 93707), this device
makes the following movements inoperative whereas all other boom movements remain operational:
• lowering of the boom

• extending of telescope
• forward or backwards tilt of the forks or attachment
• hydraulic function located behind the boom head

1.6- Handling of load:
1.6.1- Indicator of longitudinal stability:
NOTE
The alarm must be made active before carrying out handling work.
Always check the state of the 3 longitudinal stability indicators during handling or lifting operations.
NOTE As soon as the amber longitudinal stability indicator light comes on or as soon as the
alarm is triggered again and at the latest when the red indicator light comes on, stop
controlling the so-called aggravating movements for the stability of the machine which
are:
• extending the telescopic boom
• lowering the boom
As soon as the amber longitudinal stability indicator light comes on or the alarm is triggered and at the latest when
the red indicator light comes on, control the movements getting you out of the dangerous situation in the following
order:
1.6.1.1- ensure the telescope is fully in
1.6.1.2- lower the boom
1.6.1.3- then repeat the manoeuvre in conditions that are more favourable to the stability of the machine

1.6.2- Device for stopping aggravating movements (AMA):
This device cuts the following movements when the handled load reaches 85% of the load that causes the machine
to tilt forwards:
• lowering the boom
• extending the telescopic boom
• forward tilt of attachment
• backward tilt of attachment
• hydraulic function located behind on the boom head
NOTE • This device assists driving only, in no way does it substitute monitoring the
longitudinal stability indicator and the action to be taken according to the
visual indicators and alarms.
• Activating the AMA device can cause loss of stability when cutting
aggravating movements because the boom manoeuvring speed is too fast.
Adapt the speed of boom movements to the minimum necessary to carry out
the operation in full safety.

3.8- Stowing and slinging the machine:
3.8.1- Stowing the machine:
3.8.1.1- load the machine onto the trailer in accordance with its loading drawing in terms of position and distribution
of mass
3.8.1.2- stop the machine (see §1.5.4)
3.8.1.4- attach wedges to the floor of the trailer in front of and behind each of the machine’s wheels (see fig. 93795)
and against the inner side of each wheel (see fig. 93796)
3.8.1.4- stow the machine on the trailer using the front (see fig. 93797) and back (see fig. 93798) stowing pins
NOTE Before loading the machine on the trailer, make sure that:
• all safety instructions for the trailer are complied with
• the driver of the trailer has been informed of the dimensions and masses of
the machine
• the trailer platform is big enough and has sufficient capacity to transport the
machine.
• the admissible pressure on the trailer platform is compatible with the
machine.

3.8.2- Slinging the machine:
This operation will be carried out on the machine when there are no attachments. Before this operation, lower the
boom position, put the CDDL in the middle position, return the wheels to the right position and stop the machine
(see §1.5.4). Then take into account:
3.8.2.1- the position of the machine’s centre of gravity (see fig 93792)
3.8.2.2- the position of the front (see fig. 93793) and rear (see fig. 93794) slinging pins
NOTE Before carrying out the slinging operation, make sure that in relation to the machine’s
mass and dimensions:
• the handling equipment used is suitable
• the slings, swing bars, shackles and other equipment used is suitable

3.8.3- Towing the machine:
3.8.3.1- Preparing for towing:
When towing the machine, it first needs to be prepared.
NOTE • Before starting this operation, the machine must be immobilised using
chocks in front of the wheels or any other means independent of the
machine. Do not apply the parking brake.
• After this operation, the parking brake will be impossible to use and it will no
longer be possible to lock the machine with the hydrostatic transmission.
3.8.3.1.1- disengaging the hydrostatic transmission:
it is impossible for oil to circulate in a hydrostatic transmission in a closed circuit when the machine is not running,
this operation involves making oil circulation possible:
• there are two identical multifunction valves on the hydrostatic transmission pump (see fig. 93799)
• each valve has three 6-sided nuts of different sizes
• loosen the nut by three turns from the middle of each valve (see fig. 93800)
3.8.1.2- releasing the parking brake:
as the machine’s parking brake is tightened by lack of pressure, this operation involves releasing the brake
mechanically:
• there are three equally distributed screws at each end of the central part of the front axle 120° from
each other (see fig. 93801 and 93802). These screws are driven into a counterbore
• the work will first be carried out on the three screws on one side then on the next three
• gradually screw (quarter turn by quarter turn) each of the three screws alternatively until they bite (2 -
2,5 turns approximately per screw)

3.8.3.2- hooking the machine:
use the front or rear stowing pins (see § 3.8.1.4) or the rear trailer hooking device (if the machine has one) to hook
the machine to the trailer. It is best to use rigid connectors (attachment bar) than flexible devices (cables).
NOTE Before towing the machine, make sure the trailer has:
• sufficient power to tow the machine
• adequate braking installations to stop and block the position of the unit
3.8.3.3- towing:
when towing:
• the service brake remains functional

• the parking brake which also acts as emergency brake, does not work
• steering remains functional but not assisted. The force required to operate the wheel is clearly more
than for normal operation
• use the hazard warning lights
Where this towing is to be carried out on public roads, comply with the Highway Code.
NOTE The machine must be towed:

• at a maximum speed of 5 km/h
• over very short distances so that it can be loaded onto a trailer or released
from an awkward position
• with means appropriate to its mass and size
3.8.3.4- after towing:
return the functions altered for towing to their original state (see §3.8.3.1) by carrying out the reverse operations:
• tighten the middle nut on each of the two transmission pump’s multifunction valves
• mechanically release the parking brake to return it to working order
NOTE
Do not forget to carry out these two operations to avoid any risk of accident that might
be caused by incorrect operation of the machine after its start-up.
