3.3.6 Inner 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.
1. Stretch the Attachment Tilt and auxiliary hoses out
straight on a flat surface. Measure from the male
end (6) of each hose back 196" (498 cm) and apply
tape (7) around each hose at that point. The tape is
for proper tensioning of the hoses during reassembly
of the hose clamps.
2. Without auxiliary hydraulics: Slide the elbow ends
of the two Attachment Tilt hoses (8 and 9) down the
inner boom and out to the gooseneck. Keep the
hoses next to each other as they are being pushed
down the inner boom. At the opening in the
gooseneck, pull both hoses out. Be careful not to
cross the hoses as you pull them out. Label the left
side hose (8) as “Retract” and the right side hose (9)
as “Extend.” Label the hoses the same on the male
end of each hose.
