Check each of the six boom-movement switches
(2) using GROUND OPERATION (3) to see that
they cause the TB100J to move the way it
should. Check both positions of each switch. (For
correct operating procedures see the
“OPERATION” chapter.)

Check all of the boom-movement, drive, and
steering functions from the platform-control box
(4) to see that they cause the TB100J to move
the way it should. (For correct operating
procedures see the “OPERATION” chapter.)
NOTE: Leave the engine running for the next
step.

With the engine running, use the ground-control
box to extend the booms about 10 feet (three
metes). Visually inspect to see that all 12 slide
pads (1) are in place at the rear end of the base
and intermediate booms (six per boom).
Look at the surfaces (2) that slide on each slide
pad. The paint should still be in place and there
should not be any signs of bare metal gouging or
lubricant.
Check the slide pads and paint inside the front
end (3) of the base boom similarly.
Completely retract the booms then turn the
engine OFF at the ground-control box MASTER
KEY SWITCH.
