INSTALLING THE JIB BOOM ON THE BASE: Figure 7 illustrates installation of the Jib Boom on the available Base
options:
1.
Install Stationary Bases: Assemble and install Floor Mount or Flush Mount Base as instructed in their respective
Installation Instructions (see Table 1). Counterweight Bases should come pre-assembled.
2.
Assemble the Jib Boom: Assemble the Jib Boom as instructed in the Assembly Instruction (see Table 1).
3.
Position the Jib Boom over the Base: Lift the assembled Jib Boom boom by the Hoist Ring with a Forklift or Crane.
Position the Jib Boom so the Mounting Socket in the bottom of the upright is directly over the Hitch Ball Post.
4.
Lower the Jib Boom onto the Base: Lower the Jib Boom onto the Base until the Hitch Ball fully seats in the
Mounting Socket.
5.
Confi gure Jib Boom Rotation: The Jib Boom can be locked at 11° rotation increments with the Rotation Lock Pin
Mechanism or allowed to rotate through a range defi ned by two Rotation Limiters.
A.
No Rotation: Rotate the Jib Boom to the desired position and then insert the Rotation Lock Pin through the
inside Pin Hole and aligned hole in the Rotation Plate to prevent the Jib Boom from rotating.
B.
Rotation Range: Insert the Rotation Lock Pin through the outside Pin Hole and then install Rotation Limiters on
each side of the Lock Pin: Remove the Rotation Limiters from their storage positions on the Jib Boom. Insert the
Rotation Limiter mounting pegs through the desired holes in the Rotation Plate to defi ne the rotation range.
CAUTION:
The Jib Boom may be used without the Rotation Lock Pin inserted, allowing 360° rotation; but can cause increased
swing fall in multiple directions in the event of a fall.
3.3
INSTALLING OPTIONAL LEVELING JACKS: An optional Jack Leveling Kit is available for the Counterweight Bases.
Install the Leveling Jacks on the Counterweight Base as instructed in the included Installation Instruction (see Table 1).
3.4
TRANSPORTING THE SYSTEM: Figure 8 illustrates transport of the Jib Boom. Prepare and transport the system as
follows:
1.
Lower the Jib Boom: Turn the Vertical Adjustment Hand Crank until the Adjustable Upright and Jib Boom are fully
lowered.
2.
Rotate the Jib Boom: Remove the Rotation Lock Pin, rotate the Jib Boom for best clearance during transport, and
then reinsert the Rotation Lock Pin to prevent the Jib Boom from rotating during transport.
3.
Transport the System: Transport Jib Boom systems with a Counterweight Base to the desired work location
with a Forklift or Pallet Jack and the Lifting Channels; or Crane or similar equipment and the Lifting Eyes on the
Counterweight Base. Transport the Jib Boom from one base to another base with a Crane, Hoist or Forklift with a
Lifting Strap/Chain and the Hoist Ring on the top end of the Upright Assembly.
CAUTION:
Never transport the system without the Jib Boom fully lowered and the Rotation Lock Pin inserted.
WARNING:
Do not transport at speeds exceeding 5 mph (8 kph). Never transport the system on slopes greater than 10°.
Excessive speeds or slopes may cause system and tow vehicle tip-overs resulting in serious injury or death.
WARNING:
When transporting the Jib Boom, be aware of overhead obstructions and electrical hazards which may result in
serious injury or death.
