Refer to Figure 1-6.
The boom must be mounted to the sprayer or tractor be-
fore swing arm shock kit is assembled.
1. Center the shock mount weldment (1) on boom carrier
frame as shown and bolt in place using the 3/8-inch u-
bolts (2) and the 3/8-inch flange nuts (3).
2. Compress shock absorbers (4) to a length of 14 inch-
es from center to center of mounting holes. Wire the
shocks from base end to rod end to maintain this
length during assembly.
3. Bolt the rod end of the shock to the swing arm channel
(6) using the 5/8-by-4 3/4-inch bolts (5), spacers (10)
and 5/8-inch flange lock nuts (7). Rotate the shock un-
til it lines up with the mounting hole in the center shock
mount weldment and cut the wire to let the shock ex-
tend into the channel. Align the shock mounting hole
and bolt in place using the 5/8-by-2 3/4-inch bolt (8)
and 5/8-inch flange lock nut (9).
