ffi WARNING
Always ensure that machine level indicator is at zero (0)
before raising the boom. Raising boom with a unlevel
machine may cause the machine to overturn, resulting in
injury or death.
E
ffi WARNING H
Use frame sway control to level machine only when the
boom position is horizontal or lower. Using frame sway
control when boom is higher than a horizontal position may
cause machine to overturn, resulting in injury or death.
1. FRAME SWAY CONTROL
The frame sway control (E) is located on the dash
panel. The frame sway control is used in conjunction
with the machine level indicator (F) mounted on top
of the dash panel. The sway control lever is either moved to
the left or right depending on the particular requirement.
2. ROTATING FORK FRAME CONTROL
The rotating fork frame control (G) located on the
dash panel allows the operator to position forks
for insertion or removal from pallet.
!
NOTE: The rotating fork frame is an option. If your =-=
machine is not equipped with a rotating fork frame,
no control will be mounted on the dash panel.
3. HEADLIGHT SWITCH
The head light switch (H) is located on the dash panel.
This is a push/pull type switch. r---K
NOTE: Head lights are optional. If your machine
is not equipped with headlights, no switch will be
mounted on the dash panel.

OPERATION
BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
& WARNING
Do not check coolant level if engine has recently been run.
Injury may occur from hot escaping pressurized coolant.
3. With engine cool, check engine coolant level.
When checking coolant level, coolant should be visible
in top tank of radiator. If coolant is not visible
add a 50/50 mixture of water and glycol- based anti
freeze/coolant.

OPERATION
TRANSPORTING A LOAD
LL WARNING ®
Any SS-1048 SQUARE SHOOTER equipped with Quick
Attach option using a fork carriage MUST have a fork tine
pin with a 2 114 INCH DIAMETER. Forks MUST also have
a 5000 LB capacity each and be stamped accordingly.
Failure to follow these specifications could result in serious
injury or death.
LL WARNING
Transporting a load with the boom above horizontal
could cause a roll over hazard.
The forks should be tipped back slightly, and kept as low
to the ground as load will allow without raising the boom
above horizontal position.
ffi WARNING
At no time should any load be suspended from forks by
use of chains, ropes, straps etc. If a load must be
suspended the use of a truss (jib) boom is mandatory.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
WEEKLY (OR 50 HOURS) MAINTENANCE
ffiDANGER
®
SQUARE SHOOTER FORKLIFTS ARE BALLASTED WITH WEIGHTED TIRES.
LOSS OF BALLAST CAN EFFECT MACHINE STABILITY AND CAN CAUSE
A ROLL OVER HAZARD RESULTING IN DAMAGE, INJURY OR DEATH
8. Check tires for chloride and inflation pressure.
A. With valve stem at its highest point, push deflator point of valve core for about
a full second. There should be a solid stream of chloride solution and no air.
If air is present, tire is under-filled with chloride solution. Replace the lost chloride
solution to a level of one inch above the steel wheel. Also if steel wheel is not kept
submerged in chloride solution, it will rust causing early failure. Proper chloride
solution is 150 lbs. of calcium chloride to 50 gallons of water.
NOTE: The SS-624 is the only SQUARE SHOOTER tractor without weighted tires.
B. Use only a corrosion proof tire gauge to check tire pressure. Tires should be inflated
to 55 PSI.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
SIX MONTH ( OR 1,000 HOURS) MAINTENANCE
ADJUSTING EXTENSION-RETRACTION CHAINS, SS-836
CHECK POINTS: Proper adjustment can be checked with a
tape measure. Extend boom fully, then retract about one
inch. On either side of middle section estimate center.
Place one end of tape measure on bottom surface of
boom directly below estimated center.
TOLERANCE: Distance from bottom surface of boom
to lowest part of both extension chains should be no more
than 4 inches.
FIRST ADJUSTMENT: If the tolerance is more than 4 inches,
go to the underside front of the large boom tube to the two
extension chain anchors.
A. Tighten an adjustable wrench across the flat part of the
chain.
B. Using a 1-7116 inch wrench tighten the nut until the 4 inch
tolerance is achieved. Repeat the procedure on the other chain.
NOTE: Both chains on the SS-836 are located on the bottom
of the large section, and should have the same measurement.
SECOND ADJUSTMENT: If the measurement is still more than
4 inches, you will have to adjust thecompression spring.
This spring is located on the front top area of the large boom
tube. The gap between the majority of the spring coils should
be no less than .030. Measure gap with a feeler gauge. To
collapse the coils down to .030 gap, place a 1- 7/16 inch wrench
on both nuts on the adjuster shaft and tighten until coil gap is correct.
