5.10 MAST ASSEMBLY
Assembly procedures for all mast sections is basically the
same, carefully slide the mast sections together until mast
ends are even.
(When sliding the mast sections together,
be careful not to scratch the anodized surface in the wear
pad channels).
Assemble the hardware to the bottom of
mast section first, slide this section out the top of previous
section and assemble hardware to the top of mast. Always
install slide pad shims with slide pads inserted into the
slide pad channels,
(ends of mast sections even).
Apply-
ing Krytox spray (JLG P/N-3020041) onto the slide pads
and slide pad channels before assembly will help mast
sections slide easier after slide pads have been properly
shimmed.
