WARNING
The jib arm has a maximum lifting capacity of 400 lb (181 kg) and must not be used to lift
any material other than one mast section at a time. It is also important to remove the mast
handler from the top of the mast section before moving the platform.
The optional F2 Series jib arm is used to install or remove mast sections. The jib arm can be
used with an interchangeable manual or electrical winch. With a maximum lifting capacity
of 400 lb (181 kg), the jib arm must not be used to lift any material other than one mast
section at a time. It is important to make sure that mast sections are equally distributed
at all times on either side of the mast so the structure is not thrown out of balance.
1- With the motorized unit at base level, remove the toggle pin and lift out the cover plate
of the jib arm pocket on the link bridge of the motorized unit (fi g. 8.43).
The jib arm can be installed on the left or right side of the motorized unit.

completely covers the pivot pin on the jib arm support plate, inside the link bridge
(fi g. 8.44). It is recommended that the lift and installation of the jib arm assembly be
performed by two persons.
