B. Intermediate Boom Chain Tension Adjustment
(As required)
NOTE: Always perform the “Intermediate Boom Chain Tension Check”
starting on page 161 before adjusting the boom chain tension.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground. Place the travel select lever in (N)
NEUTRAL, move neutral lock lever to NEUTRAL LOCK position,
engage the parking brake switch and raise the boom to a horizontal
position. Retract the boom completely and turn the vehicle OFF.
2. Adjust the intermediate boom extend chains (1) by tightening the
locknuts (3) located at the rear of the boom. Be sure each locknut is
tightened equally so that each chain maintains the same tension.
3. Equal chain tension can be checked by the position of the yoke (2)
on the outer boom. The front of the yoke should be parallel with the
front edge of the boom.
