Boom Installation
Note: Light lubrication of the boom wear surfaces with a
factory authorized grease is recommended to keep the
boom wear surfaces lubricated properly. Light lubrication
of the boom wear surfaces is also recommended when
the machine is stored, to help prevent rusting.
1. Park the machine on a hard, level surface. Make
sure park brake is set, key is removed from the
ignition and “Do Not Operate” tag is placed in clear
view in the cab.
2. Using suitable slings, balance the boom assembly,
lift and carefully guide the boom into place. Align the
frame pivot bore with the boom assembly pivot bore.

Compensation cylinders, pins and lock bolts (5).
Apply Loctite

Lift/Lower cylinder, pin and lock bolt (6). Apply

and torque to 90 Nm (66 lb-ft).
Note: Raising the boom up or down with the sling
maybe necessary so the boom, Compensation and Lift/

installation.
Note: Grease the boom pivot bore, compensation
cylinder rod ends, lift/lower cylinder rod end and pins
before installing.

each hose firmly 1 to 1-1/2 flats.

the inside left rear corner of the main boom section
and frame. Refer to Section 9.14.7, “Boom Angle
