6.5.2 Steady legs
The hexagonal nut has a joint, which can be used to bring the attached
socket spanner into a more convenient position for turning.
In order to ensure their correct function, clean and grease the interior tubes of
the steady legs regularly.
The length of the steady legs can be adjusted.

Steady leg
Extending:
Place the socket spanner on the hexagon nut (Fig. 6,1) and rotate until the
steady leg is in a perpendicular downward position.
Remove the splint (Fig. 6,4) out of the support foot extension (Fig. 6,5).
Extend the support foot extension until it has reached the required length.
Insert the splint in the support foot extension.
Rotate the hexagonal nut until the steady leg rests completely on the
ground and the vehicle is in a horizontal position.
Retracting:
Place the socket spanner on the hexagon nut (Fig. 6,1) and rotate until the
steady leg is clear of the ground.
Remove the splint (Fig. 6,4) out of the support foot extension (Fig. 6,5).
Push in the support foot extension (Fig. 6,5) and insert the splint (Fig. 6,4)
in the drilled hole in the support foot extension.
Rotate the hexagonal nut (Fig. 6,1) with the socket spanner until the steady
leg has swung upwards and the guide disc (Fig. 6,3) has completely
retracted into the notch (Fig. 6,2).
Before commencing the journey, observe the following: Are all steady legs
and support foot extensions retracted completely and secured with the
splint? Are the guide discs for all steady legs retracted into the notch?
