Boom

7. Using a suitable sling, carefully slide the third boom

section into the second boom section. Leave enough
room at the front of the boom to install the remaining
wear pads.

8. Install the top and side wear pads to the inside of the

second boom section.

9. Place the two extend chains up through the double

sheave mounting bracket on the front of the second
boom section.

10. Assemble the two extend chains to the mount if the

yoke plates were removed from the extend chains.
Secure in place with a locknut. Tighten the locknut
securely; but the yoke plates must pivot freely.

11. Install the double extend chain sheave. Apply grease

to the sheave. Turn the sheave by hand to distribute
the grease evenly.

12. Align the holes in the yoke plates with the hole in the

mount on the first boom section. Coat the shoulder
bolt with anti-seize compound and insert the
shoulder bolt (17) through the yoke plates and the
mount on the boom. Secure in place with a locknut.
Tighten the locknut securely; but the yoke plates
must pivot freely.

13. Place the retract chain around the retract chain

sheave on the right side of the boom. Stretch the
chain forward and place the clevis between the two
anchor plates. Align the hole in the clevis with the
hole location recorded in the removal procedure.

Fourth Boom Section Installation

1. Lay the hose carrier assembly out flat on a level

surface. Stretch the four male ends of the hoses out
straight from the hose carrier assembly. Measure
from the male end of each hose back toward the
hose carrier assembly 196 in (498 cm) and apply
tape around each hose at that point. The tape is for
proper tensioning of the hoses during reassembly of
the hose clamps.

2. Insert the hose channel assembly into the rear of the

fourth boom section. Slide the hose channel
assembly into the boom and line up the holes for the
side wear pads.

3. Install the side, bottom and top wear pads.

4. Lay the fourth boom section extend chain (18) on the

top of the fourth boom section with the threaded
clevis end toward the rear of the boom. Coat the
threads on the clevis with multi-purpose grease and
insert the clevis through the hole in the anchor plate.
Install a washer and locknut onto the clevis. Tighten
the locknut enough so the threads are even with the
top of the locknut.

Note: The hose carrier only folds one way; DO NOT
force it. DO NOT twist the hose carrier while folding.
