Rear support devices are major safety components for tank truck opera-
tion. They are subject to high loads during the unloading process. Great
care and attention should therefore be given to their installation.
It is the vehicle builder's responsibility to specify the ground clearance.
The ground clearance has to be dimensioned such that no spacers are
necessary for height compensation.
The vehicle manufacturer has to adequately dimension connection and
bracing of the rear support devices and secure them free of tension. This
has to be clearly documented for the fitter and user.
We recommend that stops be fitted to relieve the strain on the securing
gB
screws above the screw-on plate.

z Check the rear support device for signs of damage, if neces-
sary have the support repaired before use
z In order to actuate the rear support device, swing the crank
handle out of its holder and engage it on the crankshaft.
z Switch to high gear:
Pull out the crankshaft with the crank handle until the
catch engages (a slight turning movement will make it
easier to engage).
z Extend the rear support device by turning the crank
handle clockwise.
the rear support device should be extended and
retracted quickly to bridge ground clearance
z Switch to high gear:
Push the crankshaft in with the crank handle until the
catch engages (a slight turning movement will make
it easier to engage).
switch from high gear to low gear before the
