High Crane Stabiliser:

Stabiliser leg placed on deck or chassis

Where the deck length permits, high stabiliser legs should be placed on top of the companion truck or trailer. If the deck of the companion truck or trailer has been designed for operating with a Steelbro Sidelifter, position the high stabiliser foot in the designated area. Alternatively place suitable timber dunnage under the Stabiliser foot to spread the load over the two chassis rails.

Stabiliser leg placed on ground

If there is insufficient room to place the high stabiliser foot on the deck it can be placed on the ground by tilting the stabiliser steeply before fully extending. If not, jack-knife the companion tractor unit to 45 degrees enabling the stabiliser leg to be placed on the ground fully extended.
