ASSEMBLY
NOTE: Install same number and thickness of shims as removed.
1.
Measure inside dimensions of tower base section to
determine number of shims required for proper lift.
2.
Install side, top and bottom wear pads to aft end of
tower fly section. Shim evenly to measurements of the
inside of base boom section.
ENSURE BOOM SLIDING AREAS ARE CLEAR OF CHAINS, TOOLS, AND OTHER
OBJECTS WHEN ASSEMBLING BOOM SECTIONS.
3.
Align upright leveling cylinder with attach holes in
tower fly boom. Using a soft head mallet, install the cyl-
inder pin into tower fly boom and secure with mounting
hardware.

tower fly boom. Install cylinder pin in tower fly boom
using a soft head mallet. Secure with mounting hard-
ware.
5.
Secure sling and lifting device at tower fly boom center
of gravity.
6.
Slide tower fly boom assembly into the tower base
boom section. Shim boom, if necessary, for a total of 1/
