Description
A 9.45 m (31 ft) fixed offsettable or a 9.45 to 17.07 m (31 to
56 ft) folding offsetable swingaway boom extension is

The boom extension mounts directly to the boom nose
utilizing a four point attachment. In addition, the swingaway

The fixed swingaway weighs approximately 774 kg (1706 lb)
and the folding swingaway weighs approximately 1102 kg
(2430 lb).
