4. Apply Boom Assembly push force test at the end stop cap furthest from the
swivel. Force should be between 3 and 4 pounds (1.4 and 1.8 kilograms) of
resistance (Figure 28).

(Ensure Body Shield is directly under Swivel as shown
to perform force test.)
Inspection Instructions for Leaded Acrylic Shield
(ZGCMRS)
Adjusting Ball Joint Tension
1. The ball joint on the center of the shield is intended to allow for proper positioning
(angle) of the shield. Through repeated use, it may be necessary to make
adjustments to the ball joint tension to ensure the shield stays in position once
set up.
2. While the system is not in use, lower and rotate the shield so that the ball joint is
facing away from you. (Figure 29: ZGCMRS Shield Attachment Point)
3. To reduce the mobility of the shield on the ball joint, tighten (turn clockwise) all
four (4) set screws. Tighten each set screw only (1) one to two (2) full rotations
at a time ensuring the same number of rotations is completed for all four (4) set
screws. Periodically check the tension of the shield to determine if the desired
mobility was reached.
4. To increase the mobility of the shield on the ball joint, loosen (turn
counterclockwise) all four (4) set screws. Loosen each set screw only (1) one
to two (2) full rotations at a time ensuring the same number of rotations is
completed for all four (4) set screws. Periodically check the tension of the shield
to determine if the desired mobility was reached.
5. Contact a TIDI Products authorized representative or TIDI Products service for
repairs and / or replacement of components. Replacement and repairs may only
be completed by TIDI Products authorized personnel.
