THIRD STAGE
• The third stage tilt angle is adjusted using the
clevis joint threads at pivot C.
• The third stage fold should be adjusted so that
it is angled 0.2° higher than the first stage. The
alignment will be ideal when the third stage is
closely parallel with the second stage when folded
closed.
1. Loosen the locknuts on the upper and lower
clevis joint threads (1 7 /
8
" inch spanner).
2. Winding the top clevis closer to the second stage
will cause the third stage and breakaway end to
sit higher in the open position. When folded it will
sit lower than before. Some trial and error will
be required to check that the boom is vertically
aligned correctly in both the open and closed
positions.
3. Once the correct alignment has been obtained,
re-tighten the locknuts on the upper and lower
clevis joint threads (1
7
/
8
" inch spanner).
SECOND STAGE
• The second stage tilt angle is adjusted using the
clevis joint threads at pivot B.
• The second stage fold should be adjusted so that
it is angled 0.2° higher than the first stage. The
alignment will be ideal when the second stage just
touches the keeper of the first stage when folding
closed.
1. Loosen the locknuts on the upper and lower
clevis joint threads (1
7
/
8
" inch spanner).
2. Winding the top clevis closer to the first stage
will cause the second and remaining stages to sit
higher in the open position. When folded it will sit
lower than before. If angled up too much when
open, it will sit below the keeper when folded
and not be able to close properly. Some trial and
error will be required to check that the boom is
vertically aligned correctly in both the open and
closed positions.
3. Once the correct alignment has been obtained,
re-tighten the locknuts on the upper and lower
clevis joint threads (1 7 /
8
" inch spanner).
