4.1 MOUNTING SEARCHER HOOK
To mount a searcher hook stowed in the left section of the main boom, on the tip of the main boom, follow
the procedure below.
If the searcher hook bracket is already installed on the tip of the main boom, start from step 6.
1. Remove the searcher hook bracket (4) stowed in the stowage
bracket (14) at the front of vehicle, fixed with the eye bolt (15) and
the washer (16).
2. Loosen the nut (8) on the tip side of the head pin (13).
3. Adjust the position of the searcher hook bracket (4) by hanging it
from the head pin (13) and insert the point pin (5) to secure it.
NOTES
The searcher hook bracket (4) should be hung from the head pin
(13) by its design; slide in from the front to attach it.
4. Attach the collar (6), the plate (7) and the nut (8) to the tip side of
the point pin (5).
5. Tighten the nut (8) you loosened in step 2.
6. Pull out the stowed pin A (9).
7. Pull out the pin B (10) from the stowage bracket B (12) and slide
the searcher hook boom (1) horizontally to remove it from the
stowage bracket A (11).
The searcher hook boom (1) will fall when the pin B (10) is
pulled out; be sure to support the boom and pull the pin out
slowly. Do not work on top of the crawler.
NOTES
You need these pins you have just pulled out (pin A (9) and pin B
(10)) to attach the searcher hook boom (1) to the searcher hook
bracket.
