Boom
3.3.4 Outer Boom Installation
IMPORTANT: Light lubrication of the boom wear surfaces
with a rust inhibitor/lubricant such as LPS 3 or equivalent
is recommended to keep the boom wear surfaces
lubricated properly. Light lubrication of the boom wear
surfaces is also recommended in salt air climates and
when the vehicle is stored, to help prevent rusting.
Note: If you are assembling a new outer boom
assembly, follow all instructions. If reassembling the
existing boom assembly, go to Step 4.
1. With the boom level, hang the angle indicator
pointer (1) to the weld stud (2) on the outer
boom (3). Lightly place a vertical mark (4) from the
point on the indicator, down approximately 3".

2. Assemble a new angle indicator decal (Fig. 3-50, 1)
to the left side of the boom assembly. Place the hole
in the decal around the weld stud (2) and line up
0° mark (3) on the decal with the mark (4) made in
step 1.

3. Place the two flat washers (Fig. 3-51, 1) and the
angle indicator (2) onto the weld stud. Secure in
place with the locknut (3). After tightening the
locknut, the angle indicator must pivot freely on the
weld stud, in both directions. If the angle indicator
binds, loosen the locknut slightly. Recheck to be
sure the angle indicator pivots freely.
