Q

Before making the jacks up in emergency mode what must have been done?

A

The ladder must be on the gantry

52
Q

what parameters must be met before the auto make up will function?

12 degrees

54
Q

how many strain gauges are there on the ladder?

A

4

55
Q

explain the function of the axle locks?

A

they lock the rear suspension to the rear axle, forming a stable platform from which to work

56
Q

how does the ladder judge how much projection it can achieve in relation to how much the jacking can deploy

A

by the on board computer

57
Q

why don’t the jacks lift the appliance off the ground?

A

the friction properties of the tyres assist in the stabilising proces

58
Q

What effect does the air suspension system have on the appliance after the ladder has been used for a long time?

A

if the appliance is made up into the transport position, the PTO must be disengaged the re-engaged to ensure the proper appliance ride height before redeployment
