Adjust Boom Swing Stop
CAUTION ! You MUST READ and UNDERSTAND this section as it is critcal BEFORE
attempting to put boom rest position the first time. FAILURE TO PERFORM THIS
ADJUSTMENT could cause damage to the cab of the tractor.
Boom Swing Adjustment:
1. Boom Swing Stop Location. The boom Stop adjust-
ment cannot be seen from the top of the turret assembly
(See Figure 41). If the bottom cover plate (See Item 42) is
not already removed it will need to be, it is bolted on from the
under side of the turret assembly. From the under side you
will see the swing cylinders and cylinder pivot mounts (See
Figure 43).
2. The Swing Stop Lug which is part of the Turret
Cylinder Link Weldment (See Figure 45). On the side
toward the rear there will be a lug with a bolt and locking nut
in it (See Figure 45). Loosen the bolt and locking nut, turn
the bolt outward.
3. Swinging Boom, DO NOT Swing Boom until the
boom has been run with it sticking out away from tractor and
all electronic control adjustments have been done. The
boom must be working smoothly. Slowly (with low engine
RPM) with some one guiding you swing boom inward
toward cab until the boom rest lug is aligned with the boom
rest pin (See Figure 44). Set boom securely down over pin.
4. Final Swing Stop Adjustment. Unscrew the stop
bolt (See Figure 45) until the head is against the swing stop
lug of the turret cylinder link weldment (See Figure 45). Hold
the bolt so it won't turn tighten the locking nut down against
the turret stop swing lug. Recheck to make certain the
boom will not hit the cab of the tractor. It will stop at the turret
stop lug when properly adjusted. This may have to be
adjusted more
