Boom Horizontal Extension 

The horizontal boom is to be extended back and forth to the required position for lifting each 
load in order to keep the center of gravity of the load as close to the boom face as possible. 
This is done by pulling the horizontal retainer pin and then turning the crank until a hole is 
lined up for the horizontal retainer pin to be installed. THE HORIZONTAL BOOM 
RETAINER PIN MUST BE IN PLACE AT ALL TIMES EXCEPT WHILE MOVING THE 
HORIZONTAL BOOM. THE HORIZONTAL BOOM COULD COME OUT OF THE SOCKET IF 
THE PIN IS NOT IN PLACE. 

Boom Lifting Eye Insert 

The lifting eye insert is retained by a pin into the end of the horizontal boom. This insert can 
be removed and turned around if the double lifting eye end is required. THE LIFTING EYE 
INSERT CANNOT BE SLID OUT OF ITS LOCATION (FULLY INSERTED) TO ACHIEVE 
MORE REACH. DO NOT REPLACE THE LIFTING EYE INSERT WITH OTHER LONGER 
EXTENSIONS WITHOUT CONSULTING THE FACTORY. 

Remote Controls (Optional) 

The remote control system is activated by the MANUAL/REMOTE switch located on the dash. 
The remote control transmitter hangs around the neck and buckles to the waist. Switch the 
XMIT toggle to the ON position and the red light beside the switch will flash showing the 
transmitter is on. The ENGINE switch is used to start the engine and to shut it off. The IDLE 
switch should be set to IDLE when starting the engine and then 1500 and 2000 RPM can be 
selected for more engine power and speed. The SLOW/FAST switch allows for all functions on 
the remote to be fine tuned if slower and smoother operation is required. The DRIVE, MAST, 
TILT, BOOM, optional WINCH, and STEER levers are all proportional controls where the 
function is faster when the lever is pushed.
