3/8” EZ Eyebolt
Our boom pieces are all drilled on a very precise drill press. This ensures that all the bolts are snug
when assembled. It is always better to be too tight than too loose. Always apply an anti-seize lubri-
cant to stainless steel bolts that are using stainless steel nuts. This will prevent the two from galling
together. Galling of stainless steel is common and has nothing to do with the quality of the material.
Refer to the galling information in the
Preamble section
of this manual.
Each bolt has a specific length for the particular tubing it is holding together. It is important that the
shank of the bolt is engaged in the tubing, since that is the strongest portion of the bolt. Use 5 washers
per bolt to secure the bolt as shown in
figure 1.02
on the following page.
Apply a thin film of a lubricant such as Anti-seize or Noalox to the male engagement area of the alumi-
num boom sections. Failure to do so may cause the tubes to seize inside each other. Match the boom
pieces as shown below and slide each boom piece together until the pre-drilled holes align.
Secure the correct bolts and washers onto the boom as shown in
figure 1.01
. Repeat this for each
section until the boom is completely assembled
Secure the 3/8” eyebolt as shown in
figure 1.03
. This eyebolt is part of our EZ-Eye system, which
helps to level the boom and also assists in keeping the boom from shifting during high winds.
