Boom Extend and Retract Chains
Boom Chain Inspection
WARNING: Worn pins, stretched or cracked links or cracked links or
corrosive enviroments can cause chain failure.A chain failure
could result in uncontrolled boom movement, loss of load or
machine instabiltity, and could cause death or serious injury
and/or property damage.
Under normal operating conditions the extend chains will need to be inspected
every 250 hours of operation. The retract chain will need to be exposed and
inspected every 1000 hours of operation. Environmental conditions and dynamic
impulse/shock loads can drastically affect normal operating conditions and require
more frequent inspection intervals.
a. Expose Extend Chains for Inspection
1. Park the machine on level ground. Place the travel select lever in (N)
NEUTRAL, engage the parking brake switch and raise the boom to a
horizontal (level) position.
2. Lower both outriggers completely
3. Fully extend the boom until both extend chains are taut. Shut the
engine OFF.
