Snorkel TL37J-sn7500 - Manual (Page 9)

5
The Snorkel TL37J is of the parallel linkage vertical boom design, mounted on either a road
towable trailer, or on industrial bogie chassis . The unique yet very simple boom configuration
gives the maximum safety and control ability combined with a robust construction to withstand
a heavy working environment.
The TL37J machine is designed for two man capacity with 215 kg S.W.L.
The machine incorporates a bottom boom with tie rod, a short vertical boom and a top boom
with tie rod. The TL37J has also an independent hydraulically operated Flick-Out Boom and
Rotating Cage for extra manoeuvrability.
The hydraulic system is of a fail-safe design throughout, with built-in hydraulic lock valves
on all the rams as a precaution against hose failure. The machine is controlled by means of
proportional manual lever operated valves. These valves are located at both the base and in
the cage, as standard.
Emergency lower valves are fitted as standard to allow the machine to be lowered from the
Base. Additionally, a hand pump is fitted in the cage for emergency operation.
The hydraulically operated outriggers are fitted with load sensing interlocks, to prevent the booms
being raised without the outriggers being extended and under load. An interlock prevents the
hydraulic outriggers being accidentally retracted while the booms are raised. A simple system of
warning lights show the power is on and each of the outriggers is under load.
