Jib Capacity Component Description - The inner
boom is color coded. It is painted white from 0 to 62
inches of extension. After 62 inches, the exterior of
the inner boom is marked with red decals.
The outer boom is equipped with a pointer and jib
capacity decal. The pointer responds to gravity, so
as the boom angle changes, the pointer tracks to
different areas of the decal. The decal is divided in to
two zones, one white, and one red.
The jib pole is equipped with maximum capacity de-
cals near the pivot
Procedure to Determine the Jib Capacity:
1. Determine the color of the inner boom where it
exits the outer boom. It will be either red or white.
2. Read the capacity from the outer boom pointer.
If the boom in step 1 was white, read the capac-
ity from the white portion of the decal. If the boom
in step 1 was red, read the capacity from the red
portion of the decal.
3. Check the capacity of the jib pole by reading the
decal near the jib pole tilt pivot.
4. The actual lifting capacity is the smaller of the
two capacities determined in steps 2 and 3.
Example – See Figure 4.9 for 2000 lbs. Jib
1. In this example, the boom is red where it exits
the outer boom.
2. Reading the red zone, the outer boom pointer
indicates 1500 lbs capacity.
3. The jib pole tilt decal reads “1000 MAX”.
4. The actual lifting capacity is the smaller of the
two capacities determined in steps 2 and 3.
Therefore, the actual capacity is 1000 lbs.
