THROUGHOUT THIS PROCEDURE: DO NOT FULLY EXTEND THE BOOM IF THIS ACTION COULD
CAUSE A TIPPING CONDITION.
CARRY OUT CALIBRATION PROCEDURES ONLY WITHIN THE STABILITY LIMITS OF THE CRANE.
a) With the boom fully retracted in a horizontal position, measure the distance from the boom pivot to the hook
centerline. Note the distance.
b) Extend the boom as far as possible without tipping the crane.
c) Measure the distance from the boom pivot to the hook centerline. Note the distance.
d) Calculate boom extension from this formula:
Extended
length minus
Retracted
length equals
Extension
value.

EXAMPLE
: IF THE EXTENDED BOOM LENGTH IS 72 FT AND THE RETRACTED BOOM LENGTH IS 30.5 FT
THE EXTENSION VALUE IS 72
−
30.5 = 41.5 FT
e) With the boom still fully extended, calibrate the
