When the machine is fully kneeled, insert the pin through bracket (1) and locking bar (2), on both sides of the machine. NOTE: Use the pump lever to install and remove the pins. The pump lever and kneeling lock pins are normally stored in the BII compartment at the rear of the machine. NOTICE The kneeling lock pins should be installed only during air transport.
