There are three phases to stabilize the machine correctly:
1. Lower the four stabilizers towards the ground
2. Simultaneously lift the two stabilizers that are on the downhill side
3. Simultaneously lift the two stabilizers on the opposite side until the machine is level
N.B: Verify the right levelling of machine looking the optical level placed on the turret.
!
WARNING: It is important lift the crawlers from the field also for few centimetres

When the start battery of combustion engine has a value lower of 12V, on the display of remote control
appears the message “12 V BA ERY EMP Y” and so it is necessary to recharge the battery.
If the 220V plug is fitted into the socket, turn the red key (1) down to connect the battery and the
starting key (2) on OFF; the system recharges the start battery.
