Always reed carefully this manual and the “Installation Instructions” of vehicle’s manufacturer before starting installation. Next Hydraulics s.r.l. keeps the right to change its products at any moment without any prior notice. Always make sure to be in possession of the latest release of this manual, and that the prescriptions concerning the models involved in your installation are still in force.
All the equipments sold within the European Union’s territory must fulfil the regulations of the 2006/42/EC Directive (MACHINE DIRECTIVE) in the version in force. Therefore, each Maxistab stabilizer is fitted with the safety devices required, it bears a plate carrying the CE mark in a visible position, and is delivered accompanied by relevant Conformity Declaration.

- Installation instructions for supplementary outriggers - - Tighten slightly the screw (2), paying attention that the collar is completely leaning to the below part of the cylinder sleeve, in case helping by some slight rebound-proof mallet strokes. - Then tighten definitively the screw by the torque wrench to the driving torque shown in the proper table (Tab.
Have screw tightening checked by an authorized workshop and, if necessary, restore it tightening by torque wrench, according to what shown in Tab. 1. Each operation beyond what described has always to be approved by Next Hydraulics’ Technical Department, whom you have to apply to for any clarification and further information required.

- Installation instructions for supplementary outriggers - 9 -Modification of a stabilizer series “4” standard version into “P” version (with system by stop ring – see Pict. 16) After the cylinder have been disassembled by following the above mentioned instructions, you have to carry out the following operations: Put the cylinder on the lathe, and make a groove in the desired position with same dimensions of the one already existing on the bottom, depth 2.5 mm, R 2.6 mm, by a tool of proper radius...
- Installation instructions for supplementary outriggers - 11 - SPECIAL VERSIONS AND OPTIONALS The MAXISTAB stabilizers can be provided with some optionals which can solve problems related to difficult or particular installations. 11.1 “GIR” (tilting) version This version is to be specified on order, and has got slewing cylinders, which can pivot on a pin, with the possibility of pegging the cylinders in transport position to different angles compared to the vertical line.
- Installation instructions for supplementary outriggers - 11.4 Dual side controls kit c/w valve bank This kit is used in case you wish to operate the rear stabilizer directly by a valve bank installed on it. Normally the hoses for connection to the cylinders and the valve bank pass under the stabilizer, and are suitable for installation under the chassis.
12.2 Connection piping The connection piping to the hydraulic circuit of MAXISTAB stabilizers can be either a steel stiff type or rubber hoses with steel plaits, but always of a type suitable for high pressure hydraulics. The internal diameters, materials and thicknesses must be suitable to circuit pressures and circulating oil flow.
