Before erecting or stowing the
jib, ensure that no personnel or
obstacles are in the swing path
of the jib.
Two optional jib extensions are available to provide
additional boom reach. One is a 32ft (9.75 m) side
stow swing-on one-piece lattice type jib that is offset-
table at 0°, 15°, or 30°.
The second jib option is a 33-57 ft. (10.05 - 17.37 m)
side stow swing-on lattice type jib. The jib is extend-
ible to 57 ft. (17.37 m) by means of a 25ft. (7.62 m)
manual pullout tip section.
Each optional jib extension is pinned directly to the
ends of the sheave pins. When not in use, the jib can
be unpinned from the boom head and stored on
mounting brackets on the right side of the boom base
section.
The 32ft (9.75 m) jib weighs 1,280 pounds (581 kg).
The 33-57 ft. (10.05-17.37 m) jib weighs 2,070
pounds (939 kg).
DESCRIPTION
SIDE STOW JIB
The boom must be stowed in the boom rack
before transporting the crane.
The boom extend sections should be restrained to pre-
vent gradual roll-out when transporting the crane on a
semitrailer. The hydraulic system will not hold the sec-
tions against the hard breaking jolts while the crane is
being transported.
Restrain the boom extend sections by snugging the
hook block against the boom head, or secure the boom
head back to the base section of the boom with chains
or cable. An extended(ing) boom can cause substantial
damage.
