    RT AXLE LOCKOUT SYSTEM

    The Axle lockout system is used to allow the rear axle to


    oscillate up and down to stabilize the crane during on tire pick The axle lockout system should be bled and filled
    and carry operations. The rear axle is equipped with a cylinder whenever oil seepage, dirt or oil is detected at the
    on each side that has oil on the piston side and the rod side is breather plug or on the rod.
    open to atmosphere. As one piston is moved up by a bump or Air in the axle lockout system decreases stability.
    uneven ground, the oil on the piston side moves over to the Bleed and fill the system IMMEDIATELY whenever
    other pistons piston side and pushes down on that piston. The this condition occurs.
    air from the rod side goes in and out through an air breather
    port on the side of the cylinder. This system allows the axle to
    oscillate when the boom is not moved more than 10 degrees
    from the travel position. If the axle does not hold in the blocked
    position or oscillates when the upper structure is swung 20
    degrees from the travel position, bleed the system. The system
    only oscillates inside this 20 degree position to prevent
    oscillation when boom is over side, causing possible tip over.
    With the cam plunger fully retracted, adjust valve position for
    .005-.010 inches gap between the cam roller and the cam
    travel area on the manifold. Do not measure at the low point
    on the manifold.

    ADJUSTMENT
    With the cam plunger fully retracted, adjust valve position for
    .005-.010 inches gap between the cam roller and the cam
    travel area on the manifold. Do not measure at the low point
    on the manifold.

    Tighten and secure with nuts, washers, and cap screws.

    OPERATION CHECK
    For safe operation of the crane when operating on rubber, the
    axle lockout valve should be checked daily as follows:

    1. Place boom in travel position.


    2. Drive one tire of the rear (oscillating) axle up on an eight
    inch block.
    3. Swing the retracted unloaded boom approximately 20
    degrees from the center position.
    4. Drive the crane off the block. If the tire remains in the up
    position proceed with step (5). If the tire does not remain in
    the up position readjust or replace lockout valve.
    5. Allow crane to set for three to five minutes.
    6. Observe the tire, it should remain in the up position.
    7. Swing the crane back to the center position, the tire should
    return to its original position. If not readjust or replace the
    lockout valve and repeat this procedure.
