2. Safety Guidelines

Adhering to these safety guidelines is critical to prevent injury and damage to equipment.

  • Always ensure the ground surface is stable and capable of supporting the combined weight of the equipment and its load.
  • Position the outrigger pads centrally under the equipment's outrigger or jack foot to distribute weight evenly.
  • Inspect pads for any damage or wear before each use. Do not use damaged pads.
  • Avoid placing pads on extremely uneven or sloped surfaces that could compromise stability.
  • Do not exceed the specified Working Load Limits (WLL) for the pads.
  • Keep hands and feet clear of the outrigger pad area during equipment deployment and retraction.

3. Setup Instructions

Proper setup ensures maximum stability and safety for your equipment.

  1. Site Assessment: Before deploying, assess the ground conditions. The surface should be as level and firm as possible. Remove any sharp objects, debris, or loose material that could interfere with the pad's stability or cause damage.
  2. Pad Placement: Position the outrigger pad directly beneath the intended contact point of your equipment's outrigger or jack foot. Ensure the pad is centered to allow for optimal weight distribution.
  3. Multiple Pads (for increased height): For applications requiring additional height, multiple outrigger pads can be stacked. Ensure they are aligned perfectly to maintain stability.

  5. Deployment: Slowly lower the equipment's outrigger or jack foot onto the center of the outrigger pad. Monitor the pad and surrounding ground for any signs of instability or sinking.

4. Operation

The outrigger pads are designed to provide a stable base for heavy equipment. Once properly positioned and the equipment is deployed, the pads will distribute the load over a larger surface area, reducing ground pressure and preventing sinking.

During operation, regularly check the stability of the equipment and the pads, especially in dynamic environments or over extended periods. The pads are made from Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE), which offers high strength and durability.

5. Maintenance

Mytee Products Outrigger Pads require minimal maintenance due to their durable construction.

  • Cleaning: After each use, clean the pads with water and a mild detergent to remove dirt, mud, or debris. Rinse thoroughly.
  • Inspection: Periodically inspect the pads for any signs of wear, cracks, deep scratches, or deformation. Pay close attention to the edges and the surface. While designed to be unbreakable, extreme conditions or misuse can cause damage.
  • Storage: Store pads in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Their lightweight and stackable design facilitates easy storage.

6. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues that may arise during the use of your outrigger pads.

ProblemPossible CauseSolution
Pad sinking into groundSoft or unstable ground; Exceeding WLL.Relocate to firmer ground. If ground is consistently soft, consider using larger pads or additional ground reinforcement. Ensure load does not exceed WLL.
Equipment instabilityUneven pad placement; Sloped surface; Damaged pad.Re-position pad centrally. Move to a more level surface. Inspect pad for damage and replace if necessary.
Pad cracking or deformingExcessive load; Sharp object impact; Extreme temperatures.Ensure load is within WLL. Avoid placing pads on sharp objects. While pads are temperature resistant, prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures outside the specified range (-176°F to 176°F) can affect material integrity. Replace damaged pad.
